Answer:

The correct answer is option A. "The Oregon Territory was split between the United States and Britain".

Explanation:

James K. Polk, the eleventh President of the United States, is considered the responsible of establishing the boundaries of what is now the American West. Polk's expansionist policies included the annexation of Oregon and Texas. What resulted for Oregon, was to split its territory between the United States and Britain after a peaceful negotiation in 1864, resolved after the signing of the Oregon Treaty.
