Here is a brief introduction to the state of Idaho.
Capital City: Boise
State’s Flag: Idaho’s flag, adopted in 1907, bears the state seal. A woman holding scales and a spear symbolizes justice, equality, and liberty; a miner recalls Idaho’s minerals; and an elk, a pine tree, and a sheaf of grain represent wildlife, timber, and agriculture.
Lewis and Clark travel through Idaho in 1805. On a U.S. map, Idaho appears to be one of the most improbably shaped states in America. Looking somewhat like a logger’s boot, its wide base touches portions of five states; Idaho’s panhandle region, just 45 miles wide at its narrowest, reaches north with increasing slenderness to the Canadian border. Geographers seem perplexed by Idaho some group it among the states of the Pacific Northwest; others, among the Rocky Mountain West or the Intermountain West. In 1809 Canadians establish first furtrading post on shore of Lake Pend Oreille. First as a territory and then in statehood, Idaho has always been a leftover, assembled from the scraps of Oregon, Washington, Montana, and Wyoming. For a long time, Idaho’s remote interior was considered too daunting to require much formal management by the U.S. government. In fact, between gaining status as a territory in 1863 and in 1890 Idaho becomes 43rd state. In 1927 Completion of U.S. Highway 95 connects northern and southern Idaho. In 1955 Arco becomes first town in the world to be lit completely by atomic power. In 1998 Idaho native Picabo Street wins gold medal in giant slalom at winter Olympics. Seventy-two different precious and semiprecious stones, some found nowhere else in the world, make one of Idaho’s nicknames-Gem State-highly appropriate. The name Idaho is said to mean “gem of the mountains,” an apt description, considering that 81 mountain ranges crisscross the state. Idaho is home to just over a million people, most of who live in the southern part of the state, where the valleys of the Snake River have been transformed by irrigation into rich farmland.
