Defining the US-Canada Border
On October 20, 1818, the United States and the United Kingdom signed the Convention of 1818. This treaty established the 49th parallel as the permanent border between the U.S. and British North America (now Canada) from the Lake of the Woods to the Rocky Mountains. It also set joint occupation of the Oregon Country and formalized fishing rights, creating a peaceful, enduring international boundary.
