Utah Summary
State History
Utah is a state located in the western United States. It was admitted to the Union on January 4, 1896, as the 45th state. Utah was originally inhabited by Native American tribes, including the Ute, Paiute, Goshute, and Navajo. The first Europeans to explore the area were Spanish explorers in the late 1700s. In 1847, the first Mormon settlers arrived in the Salt Lake Valley, led by Brigham Young. The settlers established the State of Deseret, which was later renamed Utah after the Ute tribe.
The Utah Territory was created in 1850 and was admitted to the Union as the 45th state in 1896. During the late 1800s and early 1900s, Utah experienced a period of rapid growth and development. The population increased significantly due to the arrival of Mormon settlers and the discovery of valuable minerals, such as copper, silver, and gold.
In the early 20th century, Utah was a major producer of copper, silver, and gold. The state also experienced a period of economic growth due to the development of the railroad and the growth of the tourism industry. During World War II, Utah was home to several military bases and was a major supplier of uranium for the Manhattan Project.
