History of North America

Did Oregon Territory have anything to do with the Mexican American War?

No, Oregon Territory did not have anything to do with the Mexican American War. The Oregon Territory was a disputed territory claimed by the United States and Great Britain during the 19th century. The Oregon Treaty of 1846 resolved the dispute and established the current boundary between the United States and Canada at the 49th parallel.

The Mexican American War, on the other hand, was a conflict between the United States and Mexico that lasted from 1846 to 1848. The war resulted in the United States acquiring a vast amount of territory, including what is now the Southwestern United States and California.
