The State of Indiana was created out of the Indiana Territory in December, 1816.
To become a state, the Indiana Territory needed a population of at least 60,000 residents. This requirement was established by the Northwest Ordinance of 1787, which outlined the process for admitting new states from the Northwest Territory. Indiana achieved this population threshold and was admitted to the Union as the 19th state on December 11, 1816.

William Henry Harrison was the Governor of the Indiana Territory from 1801 until 1812.

"Indiana" means "Indian Lands." The use of that word to describe the territory now called Indiana dates back to at least 1768 and the "Indiana Land Company." The name was used in 1800 when creating the Indiana Territory out of the Northwest Territory when Ohio was being prepared for admission as a state. At that time, most of the Indiana Territory was land held by the Indians (as Native Americans were then called) and not controlled by the US government.

Indiana did not become a colony until the late 19th century. It was just a piece of territory near the Wabash River.
