The Midwestern state of Oklahoma was mostly acquired by the United States in the Louisiana Purchase but its panhandle region was not acquired until the end of the Mexican-American War. The state was hit hard by the Dust Bowl during the Great Depression. Its capital city was also the site of a home-grown terrorist bombing in 1995 by Timothy McVeigh.
