History of the state of Montana posted by luxury limo service

 

Numerous archaeological finds and ethnographic studies confirm the antiquity of the first settlements in Montana. Some of the rock carvings date back to the fifth millennium BC. Luxury limo service wants to teach people.

 

Like many states in the American Northwest, the lands of Montana were colonized by France in the second half of the 17th century and then purchased by the United States in 1803 as part of Louisiana (or New France).

 

New lands were described and explored by the famous Lewis and Clark expedition, which reached the Pacific Ocean by 1806. True, for a long time they were not at all of interest to the settlers. The first American village was founded here only 30 years later. Only when deposits of gold, silver and copper were discovered, the population began to grow rapidly, which caused especially fierce conflicts with local Indians, who by the 80s of the 19th century were practically destroyed, and the survivors were driven to the reservation. The state became part of the federation in 1889, after which the American labor movement was born here.

 

Montana population


Montana is by no means a densely populated state. It is home to only about 1,000,000 people, and in terms of low population density, the state is second only to the desert Alaska and Wyoming. The number of inhabitants of the capital (city of Helena) does not exceed 30,000 people. True, this is not the largest city in Montana. Missoula has a population of 70,000 and Billings over 100,000.

The overwhelming majority are representatives of the white race (there are 86.5% of them here). Less than 1% of the population is African American, and 6.5% of the state's population is indigenous. Christianity is the leader among religious confessions. The largest communities here are Protestant and Lutheran.

Montana landmarks

Montana is the fourth largest state in the country. It borders on the territory of Canada and has a unique natural landscape. Rocky Mountains and Great Plains, picturesque "Missouri cliffs", lakes and glaciers - all this awaits the inquisitive tourist in the national parks of Montana. The most famous of these parks is Glacier. Of the natural attractions, it is also worth noting the bison reserve and the famous Lewis and Clark Cave with its many halls and mysterious narrow passages.

 

One of the most unexpected monuments is in the small town of Anaconda. This is the chimney of a local copper smelter. It would seem that such a banal industrial building cannot be of tourist interest, and the plant itself has long ceased to exist. However, according to official statistics, this is one of the tallest brick structures on the planet, if not the tallest. Built in 1919, this chimney reaches almost 180 meters. When the dismantling of factory buildings began in the 80s of the last century, a whole popular movement unfolded in defense of the pipe. As a result, today it is the architectural dominant of the park that was laid out on the site, and is even included in the register of historical monuments in the United States.

 

Economy of Montana

The basis of the state's economy, as in the days of the first settlers, is the development of minerals. The gold mine is not very generous, but it turns out that the true treasure of the "treasure state" is copper. Extraction of oil, natural gas and other minerals is also developed. Here is the only platinum deposit in the country.

 

A number of petrochemical and mechanical engineering industries operate in the suburbs of Billings. Bozeman is the hub of high-tech research centers. It also houses the production of the legendary Gibson guitars. The meat and dairy industry and agriculture are well represented in the state.

 

Tourism plays an important role in the economic development of Montana. The Yellowstone and Glacier Conservation Areas attract a large number of wildlife enthusiasts, hikers and climbers each year.  For read more click on Luxury limo service.
