Oregon Republic (Canton Madness)

The Oregon Republic was a Confederation founded on March 22, 1852, from the disputed Oregon Territory and Columbia District in the Pacific Northwest. The Confederation was formed as a result of the Canton Madness epidemic which swept over North America from 1846 to 1860, leaving the colonial powers interested in the region-- Britain, the United States, and to a lesser degree, Mexico and Russia-- unable to exert control over their settlers or their claims.
