Ja Morant 
We called each other the core of discovery. Jefferson was preparing for Lewis and Clark to go and he asked congress for money. He thought that everything was going to cost 2,500 dollars but it really costed 4,000-5,000 dollars. One of the reasons we left is because we wanted to make peace with Native Americans.
Whenever we were on our adventure, America grew 828,000 miles overnight, because they paid 15 million dollars for the New Orleans side of North America. Which it almost doubled in size from being there for over 30 years. The Americans paid around 3c per acre of the 828,000 acres that they got in total.

On a gloomy December afternoon in 1803, a boat crept along the banks of the Mississippi River and landed at the mouth of the Wood River in what is now the state of illinois. A we climbed out and began to set up camp under a dark canopy of oak trees. Suddenly a violent storm moved in, pelting the area with snow and hail. But we didn’t turn back though.
Instead, we stayed down and spent the next five months here preparing for the trip we were about to embark on, and the poor weather would be one of the many dangers we’d face. On our journey we ran into Native Americans who wanted to kill us. Louis studied zoology before we left so we know how to hunt and he also studied what berries we could eat and what plants so that we wouldn't die of sickness. 45 guys ended up going too, to study the plants.

On May 14, 1804 our trip started and they departed from Debois. In the spring of 1804, Lewis, Clark, me. and dozens of other men left St. Louis, Missouri, by boat. We traveled westward. In November we reached Knife River Village in present day north dakota.There we met a young Shoshone Native American woman called sacagawea and her fur trader husband, Toussaint Charbonneau.
The couple joined the expedition as interpreters, translating the language of the local tribes for Lewis and Clark’s men. Among these men were Meriwether Lewis and William Clark, co leaders of an expedition tasked with exploring land that the United States had recently acquired. Our trip would turn into an epic 8,000 mile long trek and the first big step in the United States’ westward expansion.

Sacagawea didn’t just serve as an interpreter during the trip, however. She helped us obtain essential supplies and horses, identified edible plants and herbs, and prevented hostile relations with other tribes simply by being with the group all while carrying her newborn baby on her back.
After meeting Sacagawea and her husband, the Corps traveled west from North Dakota, 15 to 20 miles a day on foot and by boat, toward the mountains. Day after day, the exhausted, freezing team braved rough rivers and perilous peaks, getting by on very little food. Whenever we were on our river their boat got hit with sand bars and broken down trees that hit the bottom of the boat. We went through a lot of struggles and people had to get off the boat and push it.

The only person that died on the Mississippi river was Charles Floyd and it was because his appendix popped like a balloon because of appendicitis. When Thomas Jefferson became the third president of the United States in 1801, the country basically stopped at the Mississippi River. france controlled much of the land to the west of this waterway. President Jefferson wanted to acquire the Port of New Orleans, in what is now the state of lousiana, from the French.
Its prime location made it a key spot for trade. In 1803, Jefferson made what’s known as one of the greatest real estate deals in history: the Louisiana Purchase. While they were on their adventure they mapped uncharted lands, rivers, and mountains. They brought back journals that were filled with details about the native americans tribes about plants that were never seen before.

It strengthened the U.S. claim to the areas now known as the states of Oregon and Washington. Lewis and Clark achieved an impressive record of peaceful cooperation with the natives and generated American interest in the fur trade.We also brought back tales to tell to the children back at home. The tales were about the native americans wanting to move west and they weren't just wanting to move west but they did.
We also brought back cool weapons that we found from the adventure that we went on. We had also brought back information about around 120 birds, reptiles, fish, and mammals. Among the items we brought back with us were a live prairie dog and a magpie, along with many animal skins and other parts, such as horns.
