Iowa
Iowa is a U.S. state located in the Midwestern United States, an area often referred to as the "American Heartland". It derives its name from the Ioway people, one of the many Native American tribes that occupied the state at the time of European exploration.
History[edit]
Iowa was a part of the French colony of New France. After the Louisiana Purchase, settlers laid the foundation for an agriculture-based economy in the heart of the Corn Belt.
Geography[edit]
Iowa is bordered by the Mississippi River on the east and the Missouri River and the Big Sioux River on the west. The state is the only one whose east and west borders are formed entirely by rivers.
Economy[edit]
Iowa's economy is based on agriculture, manufacturing, biotechnology, finance and insurance services, and government services. The state's agriculture economy is highly diverse with enterprises encompassing crop production, livestock, renewable energy, and more.
Demographics[edit]
As of the United States Census, Iowa has a population of over 3 million people. The state has a high percentage of white residents, but also has growing Hispanic and Asian populations.
Education[edit]
Iowa is home to several institutions of higher education, including the University of Iowa, Iowa State University, and Drake University.
Politics[edit]
Iowa is often noted for its political importance with its status as the first state to participate in the United States presidential primaries.
Culture[edit]
Iowa's culture is a blend of the rural and the urban, with a strong focus on community and family values, reflected in the state's rich tradition of public festivals and events.
