11 May - Minnesota Statehood Day
Minnesota is known for its wilderness and cultural beauty, but it is so much more than that. There are 69,200 miles of rivers and streams in Minnesota. That's enough to circle the equator 2 3/4 times! The first European settlers to arrive in Minnesota in 1660 were Pierre Esprit Radisson and Médard Chouart. The United States took control of the area owned by Britain after the American Revolution in 1781. In 1849, Minnesota gained legal existence as a territory.
Minnesota produces more turkeys each year than there are people in California. More cows than there are people in 20 different states. Minnesota harvests 18,900,000 lbs of fish per year. Minnesota's craft breweries sell enough beer annually to pay for the entire state to stream Netflix for over 2 years!
