That's true. We did purchase vast amounts of our land. We also fought wars for our land also. We acquired nearly all of our western states from Mexico by kicking their asses and making them sign the guadalupe- Hidalgo treaty ( which we paid them after we beat them when we could have just told them to fuck off. As they say, "to the doctor goes the spoils". We didn't have to give them anything. )
Edit: "to the victory goes the spoils". Damn you auto complete! And damn this edit for not editing when I edit my comments!
Edited2x: " TO THE VICTOR GOES THE SPOILS". Damnit! Had to edit twice because auto complete is being asshoe today.
