Montana is known as "Big Sky Country" because of its vast size and
rolling plains. The members of the Lewis and Clark expedition were the
first white explorers known to have set foot in Montana. It joined the
United States in 1889 as the 41st state. The name Montana comes from
the Spanish word Montana, meaning "mountainous," although the eastern
part of the state consists of gently rolling pastureland. The Anaconda
Company had a stranglehold on the state's copper industry for about
100 years, but today Montana is known as a tourist destination for
those drawn to its many trout streams and wideopen spaces. Its capital
is Helena and the state flower is the bitterroot.
