What land did you get from the Louisiana purchase?

The Louisiana Purchase was a land deal between the United States and France in 1803, in which the United States acquired nearly 828,000 square miles (2,144,476 square kilometers) of the Louisiana territory for $15 million, more than doubling the size of the country at the time. The land acquired included most of the present-day states of Louisiana, Arkansas, Missouri, Iowa, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Nebraska, as well as parts of Montana, North Dakota, South Dakota, Wyoming, Colorado, and Minnesota.
