You mean like between Washington and Oregon? I think it had something to do with the soon-to-be Washingtonians living in the Puget Sound area didn't like the capital, important cities, political power, etc. being so far away in the Oregon Willamette Valley, they wanted a territory on their own.

But I'm not certain, hopefully someone with more knowledge here can answer.
