Wyoming gets its name from the Algonquin words for "land of vast
plains." After the Union Pacific Railroad reached the town of
Cheyenne, the capital, in 1867, the population began to grow
steadily in the Wyoming Territory, established in 1868. In 1890,
Wyoming became the 44th state. The constitution of the "Equality
State" was the first in the world to grant voting rights to women.
Wyoming was also the first state to elect a woman governor. People
are spread out across the state in small farming and ranching towns.
Wyoming's tourist attractions are among the most spectacular and
well-known in the nation. Each year, millions of tourists visit
Yellowstone National Park (the world's first national park).
