Mississippi - Magnolia State
Mississippi is a state in the southern United States. The
capital is Jackson. The state is named for the Mississippi
River that meanders through the area. Mississippi is cited
in many sources as the source of American music. Especially
blues are always associated with the state.
Cotton fields and tobacco growing - the economy is
changing an entire area
The first colonists in this area were French sailors. As
a result of several military interventions, the Indians
living here were almost wiped out in several conflicts.
In the early days, the area of today's state was
heavily forested. Large areas were cleared to make room for
tobacco growing.
An extensive plantation system has been established. A
lot of slave trading was done to meet the need for workers
for the plantations. After a while, the cultivation of
cotton plants became established in addition to tobacco
production. The demand for this raw material increased
steadily and brought enormous income to the region.
After the ban on the slave trade and the slump in tobacco
subsidies, the settlers here were at times threatened by
enormous poverty. Due to slave revolts, more and more
productions were paralyzed and the changes also took place
in the southern United States.
Hurricane Katrina destroyed large parts of the country in
the 21st century. The coast was particularly badly affected,
but neighboring Louisiana and New Orleans were also badly
damaged.
Mississippi Delta, wide beaches and exciting cities
Jackson is not only the state capital but also the
largest city in the region. Located in the center of the
state, it is the linchpin for business and tourism. The city
is named after General Andrew Jackson and has a living
history. Located in the southern states, the city has been a
center of conflict between the northern and southern states
from the beginning. Various conflicts were also fought here
later. As well as the US civil rights movement, which led to
violent riots in the 1960s. Even today, many museums,
monuments and old locations testify to the events of days
gone by.
Many areas of Mississippi are still very rural. In these
areas, institutions such as the Church often play an
important role. Many people who live here belong to
fundamentalist-Baptist churches. Because of the remoteness
of the areas, the Church often plays the most important role
in imparting culture.
Mississippi has a long coastline on the Gulf of Mexico.
In addition to the impressive Mississippi Delta, there are
also endless beaches and many beautiful places for fishing
and swimming. But it's not just nature that attracts many
people to the south of the state. In addition to Nevada, the
second largest gaming industry in the United States has
developed here. Facilities such as casinos are spread along
the entire coast and are often important sources of income
and points of attraction for tourism in a region.
In many areas, the museums and monuments are not only
dedicated to nature and history, but above all to famous
musicians. Tupelo is a city in northern Mississippi and the
birthplace of Elvis Presley. Even today, several
institutions deal with the history of the famous artist,
such as the Elvis Presley birthplace.
The Tupelo-Elvis Festival, which is held annually in
summer, also commemorates the famous son of the city.
Mississippi is not only known for music, beaches and
casinos but also for the beautiful nature. Several national
parks have been established to protect nature, such as the
Natchez Trace National Scenic Trail. This 450-mile hiking
trail leads through a former Indian region and shows some
beautiful, untouched nature with all its shapes and colors.
