The agreement establishing the 49th parallel as the boundary between the United States and British North America was formalized in the Oregon Treaty, which was signed on June 15, 1846. This treaty resolved the Oregon boundary dispute and established the border along the 49th parallel from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean.
The rush-bagot agreement fixed the border between the United States & Canada at the 49th parallel & it resolved conflict to the claims of Oregon between Britain and the U.S. (they occupied it jointly for 10 years)

In 1818, the United States and Britain agreed to establish the border at the 49th parallel between the US and what is now Canada in the region known as the Oregon Country. This agreement helped to clarify territorial claims in the Pacific Northwest and laid the groundwork for future negotiations regarding the Oregon Territory. The border extended from the Lake of the Woods in the east to the Rocky Mountains in the west. This arrangement was part of a broader effort to settle competing interests in North America.
The Oregon Treaty set the boundary at the 49th Parallel.
Alaska is entirely above the 49th parallel. The Lake of the Woods part of Minnesota is also above the 49th parallel, but the rest of the state is not.
The territory divided at the 49th parallel in an agreement with Britain is the Oregon Territory. This division occurred through the Oregon Treaty of 1846, which resolved the dispute between the United States and Britain over the northwest region of North America. As a result, the territory was divided along the 49th parallel, with the U.S. gaining the southern portion and Britain retaining the northern part, which eventually became British Columbia.

the 49th parallel is a line that cut America and Canada in half: My great, great grandfather made a farm and his farm was cut in half from the 49th parallel. =========================================================== From Lake of the Woods to Point Roberts, the 49th parallel of latitude forms the International Boundary between Canada and the US.
The 49th Parallel
The area that had its border set at the 49th parallel by President Polk and Britain in 1849 is Oregon.
The 49th Parallel Is A Border Created In 1846. It Was Created Because Britian And U.S Both Thought They Owned Oregon. They Both Agreed To Set A Border At The 49th Parallel.

The 49th parallel of latitude forms the border between Canada and the US from Lake of the Woods to the Georgia Strait. The 45th parallel of latitude (with slight deviations) also forms part of the border between Canada and the US, along the northern boundaries of the states of New York and Vermont.
