During the 16th century, European sailors sought a route to Asia. Their efforts were in vain at the time, but they discovered America’s Pacific Northwest coast.
At first, the area of present-day Washington was part of the Oregon Country, which included the Pacific Northwest. Its northern border was created in 1846 by demarcating a new border with Canada. From the 1930s to the 1950s, white settlers moved to the area from the Midwest along the Oregon Trail. Washington became an autonomous territory in 1853 and benefited from the demand for building materials caused by the California gold rush . The construction of the railroad in the 1980s brought rapid development, and in the 1990s Washnigton became the starting point for prospectors and miners heading for Alaska and the Klondike. In the 20th century, several dams (the largest Grand Coulee) were built on the Columbia River to provide energy, irrigation and improve navigability.
Washington’s economy used to be heavily dependent on natural resources, especially wood. See Washington abbreviation. A large area of forests was destroyed in 1980 by the eruption of St. Helena volcano (now 2549 m). Washington is now the most important center of the aerospace (Boeing) and space industries, and there are a number of arms races on the coast of Puget Sound. Washington ranks 3rd among exports in terms of exports.
