I have recently acquired a document written in the 1800's in France. It is dated 1812, can anyone translate this document for me. Laughing

Translation:

Napoleon (seller remorsing): "Merde! What the hell was I thinking? I should have listened to my Foreign Minister. We should have ONLY sold New Orleans to the DAMN Yanks. Why, oh why did we offered them the whole Louisiana Territory in 1803. Merde! Merde! Merde!"



------------------
Livingston: "Well, Monsieur, we were only interested in the city of New Orleans for $10 million. But sure, we'll take the whole Louisiana Territory for an cool 15. Thanks! Vive la France!"
