The word Wyoming in the Indian language munsee means "by the great calm river". It is one of the least populated states in all of the United States of America.
The charm of Wyoming lies precisely in its ancient flavor that has always been linked to the solitary life of the gods cowboy and the boundless spaces that the territory offers. Furthermore, within the borders of the state there are two of the major national parks in the States, that of Yellowstone and that of the mountain massif Grand Tetons.
Historical notes
A territory populated by numerous Indian tribes now relegated to the Reserves, Wyoming is also known as the State of Equality as it was the first to give women the vote since the age of 21. Probably this move was also driven by the need to attract the female population to a sparsely populated state, so at least it is supposed.
There are numerous struggles between ranchers and ranchers, the rural economy has always been a major source of livelihood, in addition to what will be discovered as uranium mines. In general, however, apart from the Yellowstone park, the economy of Wyoming does not allow young people to create new businesses, which is why the state has lately tried to implement a policy of support for new business ideas but always remaining linked to the working of the land. thus granting low-cost plots.
