KANSAS
Topeka Capital • “The Sunflower State”
Motto: “To the stars through difficulties”
Statehood (34th) on January 29, 1861
Kansas is named after the Kansas River, which in turn was named after the Kansa Native Americans who lived along its banks. In 1803, most of modern Kansas was acquired by the United States as part of the Louisiana Purchase. The first Euro-American settlement in Kansas occurred in 1827 at Fort Leavenworth.
Kansas was officially opened to settlement by the U.S. government on May 30, 1854 with the Kansas–Nebraska Act. Kansas has several nicknames: The Sunflower State (official), The Wheat State, and America’s Heartland. Kansas’ motto is: “To the stars through difficulties”.
When abolitionist Free-Staters from New England and pro-slavery settlers from neighboring Missouri rushed to Kansas territory to determine whether Kansas would become a free state or a slave state. The abolitionists prevailed, and on January 29, 1861, Kansas entered the Union as a free state, hence the unofficial nickname “The Free State”.
Today, Kansas embraces cultural diversity as a growing vibrant education-oriented community with affordable housing and plenty of available retail space for new businesses. As a business-friendly state, Kansas welcomes all culturally inspiring residents and value-based businesses.
The state of Kansas is in a fast growing Midwestern area for new businesses. In the spirit of enterprising early settlers, Kansas is in an ideal location where local individual creativity can thrive and where enterprising self-starter entrepreneurs can start and own their own dream business online or offline.
