Answer:

As Americans grew closer to gaining their independence, British claims grew weaker.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the treaty of 1818, both the British and Americans had occupied the area of Oregon County and had each claimed they were the rightful inhabitants. The dispute was mainly over borders.
