There is more than one with 'The Peace Garden State' as the only official nickname as adopted by the North Dakota state legislature.

The Peace Garden State: The International Peace Garden straddles the border of North Dakota and Canada. This nickname was adopted by the state legislature in 1957 after it had been used on North Dakota license plates.

The Flickertail State: Flickertails or Richardson Ground Squirrels are abundant in North Dakota.

The Rough Rider State: Refers to a volunteer cavalry group which Theodore Roosevelt organized to fight in the Spanish American War. The group, which included several North Dakota cowboys, had to fight without riding their horses due to logistical problems in Cuba.

It has been called Norse Dakota because of the large number of residents of Scandinavian heritage.
