Indiana means "land of the
Indians." It joined the Union in 1816 as the 19th state. Today, Indiana
is a state of mostly small towns and midsize cities. Its largest city and
capital is Indianapolis, where the nation's most famous auto race, the
Indianapolis 500, is held each year. The state's residents are commonly
referred to as "Hoosiers" although no one seems certain just how
the name originated. The peony is the state flower.
