Overview

James Knox Polk (November 2, 1795 – June 15, 1849) was the 11th president of the United States, serving from 1845 to 1849. A protégé of Andrew Jackson and a member of the Democratic Party during the Second Party System,[1] he was an advocate of American expansionism and Jacksonian democracy.[2] The Republic of Texas joined the Union in his first year in office,[3] one of the causes that soon led the U.S. into the Mexican–American War.[4][5] The settlement of the war expanded United States territory to the Pacific Ocean including Alta California. During his term, the dispute over the Oregon Territory with the United Kingdom was resolved in the Oregon Treaty, creating the present U.S.-Canadian boundary.[6]
