On August 10, 1821 Missouri was the 24th state to be
admitted into the Union. Named after the Missouri Siouan
Indian tribe whose Illinois name, ouemessourita (wimihsoorita),
(meaning "those who have dugout canoes").
It is a state with both Midwestern and Southern cultural
influences, reflecting its history as a border state
between the two regions. The state's nickname is the
Show-Me State, first recorded in 1894; the state's name
is also frequently pronounced "Missourah",
a term often used by former U.S. President Harry S.
Truman, who was born in the state. The Mississippi and
Missouri rivers are the two large rivers associated
with the state.
