The United States did not pay for the southern half of the Oregon Territory but there was compensation for the assets of the Hudson's Bay Company in the territory ceded in 1846. Britain ceded the territory to the United States under threat of war even though the United States had few if any genuine territorial claims to the territory north of the Columbia River.
