To achieve Statehood Utah went through a 46 year struggle to become the 45th US State. In part this delay was caused by the US Civil War. The primary hinderance was the polygamist stand of the early Mormon settlers. By comparison Oklahoma the 46th State became a Territory in 1890 and achieved Statehood in 1907.
