When the United States bought the area from France in 1803 (Louisiana Purchase), it was just a mountainous wilderness inhabited by the Arapahs and Shoshons. Wild mountains and dry prairies have long discouraged settlers, and Wyoming has rather served as a transit area for colonists heading further west along the Oregon and Overland Trail. The introduction of the telegraph and railroad provoked retaliatory attacks by Indians, whose land was occupied and hunting looted. By 1869, most Indians were forcibly placed in the Wind River Reservation on the eastern slopes of the Rocky Mountains. See Wyoming abbreviation.
After the railroad was built, cattle ranchers and pastures occupying large areas of the state began to move to Wyoming. However, the main sector is the production of oil and hard coal. Uranium is also mined. Because the state also has enough hydropower, Wyoming is an important producer of electricity. The first national park in the world was established on its territory – Yellowstone, which contributed to the development of tourism. Wyoming was also the first state to grant women the right to vote, and was nicknamed the “State of Equality.”
