When the federal government first proposed designating the Grand Canyon for protection from those who would destroy its beauty, the people of Arizona were appalled at the idea of such government interference.
Fortunately, the US government fulfilled its responsibility and gave Arizona a natural wonder that no business person could destroy for profit.
Arizonans are now so proud of the Canyon that federal officials alone were able to protect, that they have chosen to identify their state with this unique piece of unsurpassed natural beauty. Fortunately for the present day citizens of Arizona, the earlier citizens of that state were ignored.
