2,437 Questions
Why is Minnesota's motto called star of the north?
L'Etoile du Nord (Star of the North) is not really Minnesota's official motto, rather it is an element on the official state seal. It was adopted in 1861, because Minnesota contains the northern-most point in the contiguous 48 states.
Were the Dakota Indians the first people in Minnesota?
It is possible, although many historians believe the Anishinaabe preceded the Dakota and other Native Americans. French fur traders are the first known Europeans to visit Minnesota in the 1600s, long after the Dakota settled there.
What are some of the natural resources in Minnesota?
Some of Minnesota's natural resources are: birds, fish, clean water, forests, lumber, rocks and minerals (especially taconite and iron ore).
