Oklahoma - The Sooner State
Oklahoma is a state in the United States in the country's
midwest. The name Oklahoma means "the land of the red man"
in the native language and alludes to the reddish skin of
the Indians. The capital of Oklahoma is Oklahoma City. The
city is in the center of the state.
Displaced people, those looking for a home, and a new
home in the Midwest - Oklahoma's story
In the early days of the United States, European settlers
saw no value in what is now Oklahoma. The area was assigned
to various Indian tribes in 1817. The aborigines came from
the east of the young United States and were driven out by
the new landowners. Between 1817 and 1830, approximately
50,000 people were displaced to Oklahoma and met indigenous
people there.
The displacement of the displaced has gone down in US
history as the Trail of Tears.
In order to preserve the Indian territory, the white
settlers were banned from settling in this region from 1880.
Nevertheless, people always settled in this region, which
led to conflicts after some time. In order to prevent the
conflicts, the government also released areas for European
settlers after a while. The nickname "Sooner State" was
created even before the country was released, many settlers
founded places and farms here. As if overnight, a run to the
countryside in Oklahoma was created and Oklahoma City was
created in no time.
In the 20th century, Oklahoma achieved quite a bit of
wealth and fortune. Oil and gas reserves were found that
brought jobs and capital to the region.
In the 1930s, Oklahoma was badly affected by the
so-called "Dust Bowl". Due to poor and incorrect cultivation
of the fields, there was strong soil erosion due to wind and
huge amounts of dust formed. The dust worsened people's
quality of life considerably and destroyed much of the
harvest. Many people then moved to the west of the country.
The migration took place mainly via the famous Route 66.
Oklahoma experienced the worst terrorist attack by local
terrorists in the United States in the 1990s. In 1995,
terrorists detonated a bomb in Oklahoma near the Alfred P.
Murrah Federal Building. Over 100 people died in the attack
and children were also affected.
Vacation in Oklahoma - nature experiences for beginners
and advanced
Oklahoma largely consists of flat land and wide plains.
In the east of the country, the landscape slowly changes to
the highlands, large limestone formations dominate the
landscape. The Great Plains are in the west. Large areas
that are mainly used by agriculture alternate with farms,
small rivers and large reservoirs.
Chicksaw National Park was named after the indigenous
people who moved here. The park is located in the south of
Oklahoma near Sulfur. The area includes many lakes, rivers
and forests. Long hiking trails allow hikes where you feel
almost alone with nature. In addition to the breathtaking
landscapes, the park also includes some historical sites.
Many museums and monuments tell the history of the region
and the history of the people who lived here and still live
today.
But not only this park is very popular with visitors.
Oklahoma offers a number of parks, some of which were
created for people who are looking for a more comfortable
experience of nature. For example, the Sequoyah State Park
contains a large golf course that is very popular with
national and international visitors.

Oklahoma is located in a unique place: not only because it
occupies a position practically in the middle of the United
States, but also because of its fascinating mix of North
American history, native Indian culture and genuine southern
charm. Oklahoma is the state where the largest population of
Native American Indians lives, being home to 39 tribes.
Oklahoma City, the capital of Oklahoma, is home to great
skyscrapers and architecture that attracts the attention of
tourists. Oklahoma City blends the air of a modern city with
a rich past and one of its must-see tours is to visit
museums dedicated to the memories of the Indians who
inhabited the region.
In this vast region of America, the earth is very fertile,
and farmers get the most from growing wheat, oats, and
corn. That is why the Midwest is also called the “bread
basket of the nation”. The farmer families often live very
secluded on their lands. The closest neighbor is then miles
away. Despite or perhaps because of their hermitage, people
in the Midwest have an open, friendly, and honest
nature. Here you will find plenty of space for an
unforgettable vacation.
The landscapes of Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri
and Iowa impress with endless expanses, vast plains, huge
cattle farms and a few modern cities. A special attraction
is the former Indian country: many Indian tribes have found
their new home here, which is why the authentic Indian
culture is widespread in this region.
Follow Route 66 on its way through the Midwest. This
leads through the cities of Tulsa and Oklahoma City. In
addition to these two cities, Dallas and Houston are also
known. The cities in the region offer their visitors a wide
range of culture, culinary delights and shopping
opportunities.
Summers are very hot, winters are very cold. It is
precisely this temperature difference that makes the region
the perfect growing area. For the best travel season, this
means that late spring is particularly suitable for trips
through the Midwest, because the heat is not yet to be
expected at this time. |
