In the 1830s, several parties of Americans traveled to Oregon, further establishing the Oregon Trail. Many of these emigrants were missionaries seeking to convert natives to Christianity. Jason Lee was the first, traveling in Nathaniel Jarvis Wyeth's party in 1833 and establishing the Oregon Mission in the Willamette Valley; the Whitmans and Spaldings arrived in 1836, establishing the Whitman Mission east of the Cascades. In 1839 the Peoria Party embarked for Oregon from Illinois.
In 1841, wealthy master trapper and entrepreneur Ewing Young died without a will, and there was no system to probate his estate. A probate government was proposed at a meeting after Young's funeral. Doctor Ira Babcock of Jason Lee's Methodist Mission was elected Supreme Judge. Babcock chaired two meetings in 1842 at Champoeg (halfway between Lee's mission and Oregon City) to discuss wolves and other animals of contemporary concern. These meetings were precursors to an all-citizen meeting in 1843, which instituted a provisional government headed by an executive committee made up of David Hill, Alanson Beers, and Joseph Gale. This government was the first acting public government of the Oregon Country before American annexation.

Answer:
<u> conflict between Native Americans and English in Virginia.</u>
Explanation:
The constant attacks of Native American tribes in Virginia in 1676 provoked the reaction of the colonists, led by Bacon. They attacked the main defense site of the Indians and killed about one hundred and fifty of them. When the colonial authorities opposed this and arrested Bacon, an uprising broke out. After Bacon was liberated, some 400 uprisings marched with him, insisting that they had the right to defend themselves against the Indians.
Although an agreement was made, Bacon's rebellion was suffocated by the authorities.
