Talk:History of Iowa

Honey Tree War
No mention of our glorious war with Missouri (The Honeytree War)?

Nor the James gang's first train robbery?

You left out all the fun stuff!

post 1950?
This article gives the impression that history stopped in Iowa circa 1950. I've never been there, but I doubt that is the case. The article could do with some recent history. Thryduulf 21:33, 10 November 2006 (UTC)
 * actually, the corn grows faster now than ever before. (new hybrids or global warming or whatever). Otherwise not much news. Rjensen 21:42, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

Civil Rights Advancement
It might be worthwhile to include some info on Iowa's civil rights history, which is surprisingly trailblazing. Especially in light of the recent lawsuit that legalized same-sex marriage there... http://www.judicial.state.ia.us/Public_Information/Iowa_Courts_History/Civil_Rights/ 65.118.100.70 01:50, 25 October 2007 (UTC)

Louisiana Purchase?
I'm pretty sure that Iowa was part of the Louisiana Purchase. It seems odd that it was left off of here - I checked LP on Wiki and it lists Iowa. So I think I will check back in a few days and change it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.12.65.93 (talk) 01:54, 7 April 2008 (UTC)

File:Iowa and Nebraska lands10.jpg to appear as POTD
