All four cities developed within the Louisiana Territory (the lands acquired in the 1803 Louisiana Purchase).
- New Orleans — major Gulf port at the mouth of the Mississippi; long a French/Spanish colonial and commercial center.
- St. Louis — key river port on the Mississippi, called the “Gateway to the West.”
- Kansas City — grew on the Missouri River as a trade, livestock and later rail hub in western Missouri.
- Denver — established on the plains at the eastern edge of the Rockies (site of the 1858 gold rush); located in territory included in the Purchase.
