BE ABLE TO READ POPULATION DENSITY MAPS Answer Washington wanted members of the government to work together for the overall good of the country. He believed that party divisions could weaken the government and create political enemies. Jefferson wanted the power to be in the hands of the people rather than the government. He felt the Federalists had been too powerful. To change things, he cut taxes and reduced the size of the armed forces. American pioneers used the Mississippi River and the port of the New Orleans to ship goods to the East Coast and Europe. The Spanish closed the port to American trade and the pioneers could not ship their products. Jefferson became interested in buying the port. Jefferson made an agreement with the French to buy the Louisiana Territory. France and Britain were at war. Neither side wanted the other to receive goods from the U.S., so they both interfered with U.S. shipping. The U.S. wanted to stop this interference and waged war on Britain to gain control of the seas. STUDY THE VOCABULARY TERMS AND DEFINITIONS
