Spelling the name of this state out loud is a catchy way to remember
it, and a way to make sure you spell it correctly. The name
"Mississippi" comes from an Indian word meaning "great waters" or
"father of waters." Mississippi entered the Union as the 20th state in
1817. Considered part of the Deep South, Mississippi, with its rich
soil and many rivers, is an agricultural state. The state flower is
the fragrant magnolia blossom, and the capital is Jackson.
