It was in California. A man found out about the gold rush and told his friend who was a shovel store owner, then the shovel store owner told everyone, they all came to get gold, and the shovel store owner ended up getting more money than the guy who first found out about it by selling shovels! Another thing is that people had to camp out, and lots were robbed and there were lots of flies around so they had to have candles that the flies would be attracted to while they slept.
