The correct response is: The Trail enabled a large increase in the American population, giving the U.S. a stronger claim to the region.
The Oregon Trail facilitated the westward migration of settlers, leading to increased American presence in the Pacific Northwest, which ultimately influenced the establishment of boundaries between the U.S. and British territories in that region.
