49th parallel
Oregon
England controlled the upper portion and the United States controlled the lower portion. The Upper Portion of Oregon eventually became part of Canada.
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.
