What was the strategic value of trying to obtain the Oregon Country for the United States, according to John Quincy Adams and others in government in favor of acquiring it?
A) It provided a Pacific Northwest base to expand into Alaska should Russia decide to cede the territory to the United States.
B) It would be useful political leverage in concluding upcoming negotiations with Russia over the border of Alaska with the United States.
C) The United States would be able to overwhelm the restive native peoples of the region if it had full political control of Oregon.
D) An American presence at the mouth of the Columbia River in Oregon would be beneficial not only for access in the fur trade and as a way to enter Pacific trade with Asia.
