North Dakota

Steam boat captain Alexander Griggs founded Grand Forks, North Dakota in 1870 after his steam boat froze in the Red River and Griggs and his men were forced to spend the winter there. Griggs claimed a 9 acre piece of land which became the town site.

Grand Forks was incorporated on February 22, 1881.

No one knows, when President Benjamin Harrison signed the bills admitting these states into the Union, he never said which he signed first, but we do know that he signed them on November 2, 1889.

Distance is 239 miles, the time it would take is about roughly 3 hrs and 42 mins.

Considering the speed limit is 75 between the two locations, and the traffic travels at 80 on average, the duration of the trip would only be about 3 hours.

The US state of North Dakota does not have a "state president" unless you meant to ask about a specific organization. North Dakota's top political office is that of governor. North Dakota's current Governor is Jack Dalrymple.

North Dakota is north of Colorado, so if going a straight way, you would be going north. But it usually depends on what interstates and/or freeways you are taking.

North Dakota and South Dakota were originally one territory called "Dakota Territory" for the Dakota Sioux tribe which lived in the region. Dakota is the Sioux word for "friends" or "allies."

When it came time for statehood for the Dakota Territory, there were several different proposals for splitting the Dakota Territory into states, based mainly on the fact that the population centers were so far apart.

In 1889, the US Congress approved the boundary between North Dakota and South Dakota allowing the two sections to become states on November 2, 1889.

No. North Dakota and South Dakota were both part of the Dakota Territory. When it came time for statehood, it was decided to split the territory into two states. One of the reasons was that the two main population centers were so far from each other. Another reason was that the Republican Party wanted two more states that would add to their political power.

Okay, any proven blood at all means you technically are, but to truly be, you must be proud and adopt or continue some of the culture. However, if you don't look Indian or if you aren't a great percentage, you won't be taken seriously by most.

There are lots of famous people in South Dakota. It would be difficult to give a definite number because it would depend on how one would choose the 'famous people' or who you would consider famous. Also, someone who is famous in South Dakota may not be famous in other places.

I would say no. If a place has a waiver form for your parents to sign then maybe. If you know where you want it done check their policy on how old you need to be, otherwise you'll have to be legal age, parents or no parents.

The US state of North Dakota is bordered on the north by the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan and Manitoba.
