Question

Explanation:

To label the map, we match each territorial acquisition to its region:

• Original 13 Colonies: East coast (smallest, easternmost region).
• Treaty of Paris: Northeast (after Revolutionary War, includes areas north/east of Ohio River).
• Louisiana Purchase: Large central region (stretches from Mississippi to Rockies).
• Florida Cession: Southeast (peninsula + northern Florida).
• Texas Annexation: Southwest (large southern region, includes Texas).
• Oregon Country: Northwest (Pacific Northwest, Oregon/Washington area).
• Mexican Cession: Southwest (California, Nevada, Utah, etc., after Mexican - American War).
• Gadsden Purchase: Southernmost (small strip in Arizona/New Mexico for railroads).

Answer:

• Original 13 Colonies: Eastern coastal region (smallest, near the Atlantic).
• Treaty of Paris: Northeast region (adjacent to Original 13, north - east).
• Louisiana Purchase: Large central region (covers most of the middle of the map).
• Florida Cession: Southeast (peninsula - shaped area in the south - east).
• Texas Annexation: Southwest (large southern region, including Texas - shaped area).
• Oregon Country: Northwest (the north - west region of the map).
• Mexican Cession: Southwest (the south - west region, larger than Gadsden Purchase, includes California - like area).
• Gadsden Purchase: Southernmost (small strip in the very south - west, below Mexican Cession).
