Oregon's capital city is Salem.  The major cities, Portland and Eugene, as well as the state capital, lie along the Willamette River valley.  Other noted cities in Oregon include Beaverton, Corvallis, and Hillsboro.  In 2005, the population of Oregon was estimated at 3,638,871, which is about 37.9 people per square mile.  The state's interstate highways include I-5 and I-84.  I-5 traverses western Oregon from north to south.

Oregon Topography

The name Oregon was first used by Jonathan Carver in 1778, and may have been taken from the writings of English army Major Robert Rogers.  Near the Pacific coast lie the densely forested slopes of the Coast Range, followed to the east by the fertile Willamette Valley and the Cascade Range.  The Columbia River borders Oregon on the north, while the Columbia Plateau stretches east towards neighboring Idaho.  Tourists enjoy Crater Lake National Park and the John Day Fossil Beds, while the more culturally-minded appreciate the Oregon Shakespeare Festival.
