The Provisional Government of the Territory of Jefferson was an extralegal and unrecognized territory of the United States that existed from October 24, 1859 until the creation of the Territory of Colorado on February 28, 1861. The Territory of Jefferson included land officially part of the Territory of Kansas, the Territory of Nebraska, the Territory of New Mexico, the Territory of Utah, and the Territory of Washington, but remote from the governments of those five territories. The government of the Territory of Jefferson, while democratically elected, was never legally recognized by the United States Government, although it managed the territory with relatively free rein for 16 months. Many of the laws enacted by the Jefferson Territorial Legislature were reenacted and given official sanction by the new Colorado General Assembly in 1861.
