Until 1824, Spain was a major colonial power in the territories that became part of the U.S. Until 1803, it claimed much of the "Mississippi Valley" (327), the immense area drained by the Mississippi River and its tributaries also known as the Louisiana Purchase, which the U.S. acquired after Spain ceded it to France.
