Description
Once upon a time, there was a photo of a sign welcoming travelers to Oklahoma, USA. This "Welcome to Oklahoma" sign makes a nice little print for people who love to travel throughout the southwestern United States.
The state of Oklahoma resides in the South Central region of the United States. The border states are Texas, Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, New Mexico and Colorado.
Part of the Upland South, the state is the 20th most populous and the 28th most extensive. Residents are known as Oklahomans (or "Okies"), and Oklahoma City is the state's capital and largest city.
Okla, meaning 'people', and humma, meaning 'red', are Choctaw words. "The Sooner State" refers to the settlers who staked their claims on land in the western Oklahoma Territory or before the Indian Appropriations Act of 1889, before the official opening date of the territory.
I hope you enjoy this photo of the Oklahoma welcome sign and will visit the Sooner state when possible.
