[QUOTE]Originally posted by Wraith: [QB] [QUOTE] Anyway, I vaguely recall reading something about the fact that the US might have picked a fight with Britain and Canada over northern territories if they hadn't attacked Mexico first instead. They only settled the dispute with Britain after they were already fighting Mexico over Texas. [/QUOTE]Yep, that's right. I think the UK/US had joint sovreignty over Oregan territory (extending north to 54 40) until 1848 (I think). There were various tensions, especially from those advocating manifest destiny, but eventually we just cut it in half. [/QB][/QUOTE]
