Why might Americans have known little about the land west of the west of the Mississippi River in 1803?

Respuesta :

The land west of the Mississippi River had not yet really been discovered. It was not part of the US and it was a wild place. The US stretched from the Atlantic and the Mississippi river. Beyond the river there were no normal settlements. 

Answer:

My journey would be by car, but there were no cars back in 1803. I guess the explorers rode horses, used boats, or just walked. I would be able to use interstate and state highways, but these highways didn’t exist back then. I could also use Internet maps, which the explorers did not have. One common thing about our journeys would be learning about new places and meeting new people.
