Nevada

The state of Nevada is found in the western part of the United States of America. The capital is Carson City and the largest city is Las Vegas. The state is nickname is "The Silver State" due to the large number of silver deposits that were found and mined there. In 1864, Nevada became the 36th state to be included the union, and the phrase "Battle Born" on the state flag defines the state's admission on the Union side during the American Civil War. Its first settlement was named Mormon Station.

In 2005, To help with the pronunciation problem, the state issued a specialty license plate by the Nevada Commission on Tourism that lists the name of the state as Nevada. The local pronunciation of the state's name is not as in the "a" in "father", but as in the "a" in "glad". Local residents are offended when hearing the mispronounced name of the state.

On March 2, 1861, the Nevada region separated from the Utah region and takes up its present name, reduced from Sierra Nevada ("snowy range" in spanish). It was seen as more politically dependable than other Confederate-sympathizing state like neighboring California when Nevada's mining-based economy united it to the more industrialized Union.

When it absorbed the part of Pah-Ute County in the Arizona region west of the Colorado River, basically all of modern Nevada south of the 37th parallel. Nevada aquired its current borders on May 5, 1866. The transfer was encouraged by the discovery of gold in the area, and it was thought by officials that Nevada would be better capable to manage the estimated population increase.

Mining formed Nevada's economy for many years. When Mark Twain resides in Nevada during the period perpetrated in Roughing It, mining had direct to an industry of speculation and enormous wealth. However, both mining and population decreased in the late 19th century. However, Unregulated gambling was common place in the early Nevada mining towns but forbidden in 1909 as part of a national anti-gaming campaign. Due to subsequent declines in mining production and the decrease of the agricultural sector during the Great Depression, Nevada again legalized gambling on March 19, 1931, with support from the governing body. At the time, the foremost proponents of gambling expected that it would be a temporary fix until the state's economic base expanded to include less recurring industries. However, illegalizing gambling has never been sincerely considered since, and the industry has become Nevada's main source of revenue today.

Found outside Las Vegas close to Boulder City, the Hoover Dam was built between 1932–1935. Thousands of workers from all over the country came to build the dam, and on conditions that for their needs in turn needed a lot more workers. The immense increase in population is expected to have flamed the re-legalization of gambling, similar to present-day industry. Both Hoover Dam and later war industries such as the Basic Magnesium Plant first started the growth of the southern area of the state near Las Vegas.
