The states formed from the Oregon Country are primarily Oregon and Washington. California was not part of the Oregon Country; it was part of the territory acquired through the Treaty of Guadalupe Hidalgo in 1848, following the Mexican-American War. The Oregon Country, which included present-day Oregon, Washington, and parts of Idaho and Montana, was jointly occupied by the U.S. and Britain until the Oregon Treaty of 1846 established the U.S. claim.
