Me: Mackenzie, do you remember studying about the Louisiana Purchase?

Mackenzie: Yes.

Me: What country did we buy it from in what year and who was president?

Mackenzie: Well, Jefferson was the president and we bought it from France but I don't remember what year.

Me: That's pretty impressive. We bought it in 1803.

Aiden: So, when we bought it from France, how exactly did we get it here?
