The Treaty of Washington in 1846 resolved the Oregon boundary dispute between the United States and Great Britain by establishing the 49th parallel as the northern border of the U.S. west of the Rocky Mountains. This agreement effectively granted the U.S. control over present-day Oregon, Washington, and parts of Idaho, while British claims to the region were limited to present-day British Columbia. Consequently, the map of North America was altered to reflect this new boundary, solidifying U.S. territorial expansion in the Pacific Northwest.
when the Oregon treaty was signed.
Through the 1846 Oregon Treaty, the United States gained control of the Oregon Territory, which included present-day Oregon, Washington, and parts of Idaho, Montana, and Wyoming. The treaty resolved the boundary dispute between the U.S. and Great Britain along the 49th parallel, establishing the border between the U.S. and British North America (now Canada) in the Pacific Northwest. This agreement was significant in expanding U.S. territory and fulfilling the concept of Manifest Destiny.
The United States acquired significant territories through treaties with Great Britain, notably the Treaty of Paris in 1783, which ended the American Revolutionary War. This treaty granted the U.S. land east of the Mississippi River, including present-day states such as New York, Pennsylvania, and Ohio. Additionally, the Oregon Treaty of 1846 established the U.S. claim to the Oregon Territory, which included parts of present-day Washington, Oregon, and Idaho.

This was the Oregon Treaty which established the boundary between the Oregon Territory and Canada.
Rival American and British settlers and conflicting territorial claims threatened war in the early 1840s. In 1846, a treaty was signed with Great Britain creating the 49th parallel as the border between Washington and Canada. By 1850, more than 1,000 people lived in Washington. This led to the creation of the Washington Territory in 1853.
