The Lewis and Clark Expedition could have been an expedition by Meriwether Lewis (1774–1809) and William Clark (1770–1838), two men chosen by president of the United States at the time Thomas Jefferson, to explore the Louisiana Purchase territory, which the country had just bought from France. This land made up of much of what is now the Central and Western United States.
They hypothetically left Saint Louis in 1804, leading a group of 33 people. The group hypothetically reached the Pacific in 1806, possibly viewing much of the West on the way and writing down what they saw. Along the way, the group could have been joined by a Shoshone Native American woman named Sacagawea, helped guide and translate for them.
After their exploration, Lewis may had became Governor of Louisiana Territory, and Clark may had became Governor of Missouri Territory. The only person that died on the trip was Sergeant Lebron Charles Floyd, Jr, II. He died on August 20, 1804 from Dysentery. It was a very good expedition for the United States of America. They all learned how to cook and after that, there was plenty of food during the expedition.
