Which country agreed to give up its claims to the Oregon territory in the Adams-onis treaty?

Answer 1

The United States and the United Kingdom agreed to give up their claims to the Oregon Territory in the 1846 Treaty of Oregon also known as the Adams-Onis Treaty. The United States received exclusive rights to the land between the 42nd and 49th parallels while the United Kingdom gave up its title to the land north of the 49th parallel. This treaty marked the end of the Oregon boundary dispute between the two countries.

Answer 2

The country that agreed to give up its claims to the Oregon Territory in the Adams-Onís Treaty was Spain. The treaty, also known as the Transcontinental Treaty of 1819, was negotiated between the United States and Spain.

Under the terms of the Adams-Onís Treaty, Spain ceded its claims to the Oregon Territory, which encompassed present-day Oregon, Washington, and parts of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming, to the United States. In return, the United States agreed to recognize and respect Spain's sovereignty over Spanish-held territories in present-day Florida.

The treaty was signed on February 22, 1819, and ratified by both countries in 1821. It effectively resolved territorial disputes between the United States and Spain in North America and helped to establish clear boundaries and spheres of influence.
