Michigan was awarded its Upper Peninsula after conceding its claim on what town? Correct Answer Toledo

Because of an inaccurate land survey, both Ohio and Michigan laid claim to land that included Toledo (a planned terminus of the Erie Canal) in the early 1800s. Both states engaged in saber-rattling, raising their militia budgets during a period dubbed “the Toledo War.” Eventually, Michigan relented and was given the 9,000-square-mile Upper Peninsula as recompense.
