When the Europeans first arrived in Oregon, there were numerous Native American tribes including the Nez Perce, the Chinook, the Klamath, the Paiute, the Molalla and the Cayuse. In 1803, the United States purchased a large region of land from France in a pact called the Louisiana Purchase. Over the next years, as more explorers and fur trappers arrived from the United States and Great Britain, both countries laid claim to the land. Finally in 1818, the two countries agreed to joint occupancy of the region. This rich history is something you will feel when perusing Oregon posters, but even more so when you use it as your decoration tool.
