Describe the process of Louisiana becoming a state.

A territory must reach a population of 60,000, at which time one delegate for every 1,200 residents must meet in convention to decide if statehood is desired.  Louisiana was the first state west of the Mississippi River and part of the Louisiana Purchase to seek statehood. In most cases, the organized government of a territory made known the sentiment of its population in favor of statehood, usually by referendum. Upon acceptance of that constitution, by the people of the territory, and then by Congress, Congress would adopt by simple majority vote a joint resolution granting statehood.

Originally colonized by the French during the 18th century, it became U.S. territory as part of the historic Louisiana Purchase in 1803, and was admitted to the union in 1812.
