Missouri is called the "Show Me State," because its people have a
reputation for believing only what they see. Its name is an Algonquin
Indian term meaning "river of the big canoes." Originally home to a
number of Indian tribes, the state entered the Union in 1821. Today,
more than half the population lives in Missouri's two major
cities--Kansas City and St. Louis. The dogwood is the state tree, the
bluebird is the state bird and the capital is Jefferson City.
