The correct answer is Great Britain
The territory around Oregon was controlled by the Great Britain who still had control over territories north of Oregon. The US started negotiating with them and made the Treaty of 1818 in which a joint occupation of the territory was announced where they would work together to organize the land because of things like fisheries or the spreading lumber business or similar things.
Parliament, although it was dissolved multiple times, starting with the signing of the magna carta, gained power by pushing the king into giving them more over time. Eventually they had enough power to overthrow and execute a king, namely Charles the first who was convicted for high treason.
