How Borders Were Drawn: A Brief History of the USA #traveltips #travelstory #history #usa
The U.S. map looks clean—but its borders are anything but simple.
It started with 13 colonies hugging the East Coast. After independence, the U.S. began expanding—fast.
The 1803 Louisiana Purchase doubled the country’s size, bought from France for just 15 million dollars.
Then came the annexation of Texas, and after the U.S.-Mexico War, the U.S. grabbed what’s now California, Arizona, New Mexico, and more.
The Oregon Territory? That was a negotiation with Britain. No war—just a line drawn at the 49th parallel.
Florida came from Spain. Alaska? Bought from Russia. Hawaii? Annexed after a coup backed by American interests.
Even state lines tell a story—some follow rivers, others are dead-straight because Congress literally drew them on maps.
Behind every line: land deals, wars, treaties—and power.
So next time you look at a map of the U.S., remember: those borders weren’t just drawn. They were shaped by ambition.
