The dispute between New Hampshire and New York regarding Vermont was ultimately resolved by the United States Congress. Both New Hampshire and New York claimed jurisdiction over the territory that would become Vermont, which led to conflicts and tensions in the late 18th century. The issue was largely settled by the 1790s when Vermont was admitted to the Union as the 14th state in 1791. Congress played a key role in mediating and facilitating the resolution of the claims, helping to clarify the boundaries and stabilize the region.
