How did the Upper peninsula become part of Michigan?
In 1835 Michigan was denied becoming a state. They claimed 468 square miles of Ohio called "Toledo Strip". This was due to a poor understanding of geographical markers around the Great Lakes. Ohio and the territory of Michigan fought over the "Toledo Strip" in a battle called "The Toledo War"(1835-1836). Militias were formed, but there was only one report of a shot being fired. In December 1836 after being in a bad financial state as well as pressure from President Andrew Jackson, and Congress, Michigan agreed to give up the Toledo Strip and accept the Upper Peninsula as part of Michigan. It was thought that Michigan got a terrible deal until rich deposits of minerals and other natural resources were discovered there.

How did Michigan wolverines get their name?
the wolverines where named after the states nick nameThis answer is not how the Wolverines adopted their nickname. Michigan adopted the nickname during the Toledo War, or also known as the Ohio-Michigan war (1835-1836). It is said that among the yelling and trash talking both sides of the militia and members of the community did during the "bloodless" war had become very heated and vulgarities were exchanged.The Ohioans likened the mannerisms and tones coming from the Michiganders to that of the behaviors of the wretched and disgusting animal, the Wolverine. The Michiganders thought the name to be fitting and adopted it as their namesake. Hence, the University of Michigan adopted the nickname of the Wolverine. Proving once again that Ohio had given birth to the State to the North two times. Successfully blocking their entry into statehood, as Ohio was a state and claimed the Toledo Strip, the very reason for the Toledo War between Ohio and Michigan.Michigan was not granted statehood, until it ceded the Toledo Strip to Ohio. This is how Michigan was granted the entire Upper Peninsula as well. The eastern third was already part of Michigan, and as compromise for giving up the Toledo Strip to Ohio, Michigan was granted statehood on January 26, 1837.So there you have it, how Michigan became the Wolverines and the proof that Ohio gave birth to the State of Michigan, not once but twice.Quoted from another writer:"Michigan got it's nickname, "The Wolverine State". around 1835. It happened during a dispute over the Toledo Strip, a small piece of land along the border of Ohio and Michigan. Rumors spread in Ohio about the Michiganders being as vicious and bloodthirsty as wolverines...."Bloody and vicious.....which is another story behind the HATED rivalry between The Ohio State University and Michigan. Consider it a continuation of the Toledo War.
