The United States was concerned about the potential for conflict because its territories were in close proximity to other territorial claims, leading to the possibility of disputes over land borders and resources. Additionally, the Louisiana Purchase increased the size of the United States and expanded its territory, which could potentially lead to conflicts with other nations who may have had interests in the region. This heightened the need for the United States to protect its borders and maintain its sovereignty.
