Jefferson Territory
The Territory of Jefferson was an extralegal and unrecognized United States territory that existed from October 24, 1859 until the creation of the Colorado Territory on February 28, 1861. The Jefferson Territory, named for Founding Father and United States president Thomas Jefferson, included land officially part of the Kansas Territory, the Nebraska Territory, the New Mexico Territory, the Utah Territory, and the Washington Territory, but the area was remote from the governments of those five territories. The government of the Jefferson Territory, while democratically elected, was never legally recognized by the United States government, although it managed the territory with relatively free rein for 16 months.

Jefferson (proposed Pacific State)
The State of Jefferson is a proposed U.S. state that would span the contiguous, mostly rural area of southern Oregon and Northern California, where several attempts to separate from Oregon and California, respectively, have taken place. The region encompasses most of Northern California's land but does not include San Francisco or other Bay Area counties that account for the majority of Northern California's population. The name "Jefferson" is of uncertain origin.The state was "probably" named for Thomas Jefferson, the third president of the United States. It may also have been a "winking homage" to Jefferson Davis, president of the Confederate States of America. Journalist James Pogue, reporting on the state for ''Harper's'' in 2022, concluded that "no one is really sure" about the origin of the name. See Pogue (2022). It has been historically used for other proposed territories or states, too, such as the 19th century "Jefferson Territory,"The Jefferson Territory roughly c ...
