The midwestern state of Iowa lies between the Mississippi and Missouri rivers in the heart of the American continent. This undulating landscape was once covered by a glacier, whose alluvium created fertile soil. See Iowa abbreviation.
The first inhabitants of Iowa were the Sioux and other tribes, whose prairie culture reached its peak when a horse was brought from Europe. The Iowa area was part of New France until 1763, but in 1803 it was bought by the United States as part of Louisiana. The eastern part of the state of Iowa was bought from the Indians in the 1930s and was also first settled by immigrants from the east and later from Central Europe. The local German and Czech communities have preserved much of their national identity to this day.
Iowa is an agricultural state, arable land occupies 94% of the country’s land area. In terms of production volume (especially corn, soybeans and pork), it ranks 3rd in the USA. The rubber, fertilizer and electronics industries have developed in the modern cities of Des Moines and Sioux City. The prestigious university is in Iowa.
