Utah has a remarkable history. Probably the most important event in the history of Utah is the settling of the area by Mormons who moved to escape religious persecution.
Mormons were the first white settlers in the area. They founded most of the cities in the state and fought many years for statehood.

Utah was settled by Mormons.
Mormons founded Salt Lake City, Utah, the capital of Utah. Actually, they founded the whole state of Utah...
The Mormons were searching for a place where they could practice their religion in peace and found that place in Utah.
Some say that the Mormons had to denounce polygamy before Utah became a state. This may or may not be true, as the plans to make Utah a state were in action before the Church officially denounced polygamy. Either way, Mormons arrived there in 1847, Utah became a territory in 1850, Mormons ended polygamy in 1890, and Utah became a state in 1896.
Utah is known for its snow, mormons, and beautiful national parks.
