Called the "Centennial State," because it became the 38th state when
the U.S. turned 100 in 1876, Colorado is most closely associated with
the Rocky Mountains and has numerous peaks over 14,000 feet. The
state's name comes from a Spanish word meaning "red" or "ruddy," the
color of much of the state's terrain. Today, Colorado is known for its
vast cattle ranges, agricultural acreage, and snow-covered mountains
that are ideal for winter sports. Its capital is Denver and state
flower is the Rocky Mountain columbine.
