Kind of ironic that eventually Spain decided that Florida was not worth the effort to maintain it and ceded it to the new country called the USA just to piss off the British.................

IIRC, Spain dumped (to France) what would become the Louisiana Purchase. I'm 72...just a thought from the distant past.

IIRC, Livingston was stymied over the purchase...since there was no "how to purchase from a foreign nation" in our Laws.
