'''Willamette''' ({{IPAc-en|w|ᵻ|ˈ|l|æ|m|ᵻ|t}} {{respell|wil|AM|it}}), officially the '''Confederation of Willamette''', is a country located in western {{wp|North America}}, bordered by {{wp|Canada}} to the north, the [[Reformed States of America]] to the east, [[New California]] to the south, and the {{wp|Pacific OCean}} to the west. It is a {{wp|confederation}} of two {{wp|autonomy|semi-autonomous}} regions, {{wp|Oregon}} and {{wp|Washington (state)|Washington}}, and 75 counties. It has a population of almost 20 million people, an area of over 430,000 km<sup>2</sup>, and one of the world's highest {{wp|human development index}} scores.

The area that is now Willamette was solely inhabited by {{wp|Native Americans}} from about 20,000 years ago until the mid-16th century when {{wp|Spanish Empire|Spanish}} traders began sending vessels northeast from the {{wp|Philippines}}, riding the {{wp|Kuroshio Current}} in a sweeping circular route across the northern part of the Pacific. The {{wp|Lewis and Clark Expedition}} traversed Oregon in the early 1800s, and the first permanent European settlements in Oregon were established by fur trappers and traders. In 1843, an autonomous government was formed in the {{wp|Oregon Country}}, and the {{wp|Oregon Territory}} was created in 1848, and was split in 1853 forming the {{wp|Washington Territory}}. Oregon became the 33rd state of the U.S. on February 14, 1859, and Washington became the 42nd state on November 11, 1889.
