Fort Vancouver

From Warlike




Fort Vancouver was an early 19th-century British fur trading post in the disputed region of Oregon Country in the Pacific Northwest. The factory was the principal settlement of the Hudson's Bay Company (HBC) in what was known as the Columbia Department. It was built in the winter of 1824–1825 and named for Captain George Vancouver, a Royal Navy officer and explorer who lead the Vancouver Expedition through this part of the Pacific Coast in the late 18th century.
