Fort Astoria was renamed Fort George in 1846 after the United States and Great Britain settled the Oregon boundary dispute. The name change was part of a broader effort to assert American claims over the territory, as the fort was originally established by American traders. The renaming also honored King George III, reflecting the historical ties and context of the time. The fort eventually became a key site for American expansion in the Pacific Northwest.
