Iowa, the "Hawkeye State", is known for its manufacturing and agriculture.
A large fertile land, relatively flat, with hot humid summers and extremely
cold winters, Iowa was the 29th state to enter the union on December 28,
1846. A thousand years ago, Indian mound builders first settled the land.
Marquette and Jolliet gave French claim to the area in 1673 and in 1803 it
became a territory of the United States through the Louisiana Purchase.
Several famous Iowans have blessed America, including: Buffalo Bill Cody,
George Gallup, Herbert Hoover, Glenn Miller and John Wayne.
