Background Lore (not directly mentioned in the maps)

in the late 18th century, discontent with British rule among the American colonies escalated into the Revolutionary War, this conflict concluded with a decisive victory for the colonists, establishing the United States as an independent nation. In 1783, diplomatic negotiations secured formal recognition of the U.S. as a sovereign entity. Crucially, the absence of the War of 1812 marked a diplomatic turning point, fostering cooperative relations with the British Commonwealth. This diplomatic approach laid the groundwork for a more amicable relationship between the United States and its former colonial ruler. A pivotal event in 1846 saw the peaceful integration of the Oregon Territory into the United States. Unlike historical conflicts associated with territorial acquisitions, this integration occurred through diplomatic channels, enabling westward expansion without the animosities that marked other expansions in American history.
