The first town in Wyoming is generally considered to be Cheyenne, which was established in 1867 as a railroad town. It quickly grew due to its strategic location along the Union Pacific Railroad. Cheyenne became the territorial capital in 1869 and remains the state capital today. Its early development was driven by the influx of settlers and businesses during the westward expansion.
