History
The Indiana area was inhabited by people long before the Hopewell Culture period (c. 100–400 AD). It was part of Mississippi culture from around 1000 to the traditional end of Mississippi culture, when it met Europeans. The main Aboriginal groups in this area at the time were Miami and Shawnee. This land was claimed by the French in the 17th century, transferred to Great Britain as part of the treaty at the end of the French War and the Indians, and passed to the United States after the American Revolution. Soon after, it became part of the Northwest Territory, then divided into Indiana Territory and joined the Federation in 1816 as the 19th state.

The cities of South Bend, Mishawaka, Elkhart, and Goshen have expanded into an urban area spanning two counties over the past 20 years. The Kankakee River winds through northern Indiana and is roughly the borderline between the countryside and the suburbs of northwestern Indiana.
