Tennessee has approximately 6,000,000 residents. De Soto first visited the area in 1540 and later on, England and France wanted the land. Great Britain won out after the French and Indian wars of 1763. Settlers called the new state Franklin, in the mid-1780s. The region was allowed to send representatives to the legislature and because of this, the concept of the new state was abandoned at that time. The state joined the union in 1796.

Tennessee joined up with the Confederacy in the Civil War, but there were still a lot of pro-Union residents and the state was the scene of a lot of fighting. Tennessee is now mostly industrial, and a majority of the residents live in urban areas. They produce textiles, chemicals, electrical machinery, apparel, leather goods, and furniture. Other things that the state makes, include lumber, processed food, metal products, and primary metals. They produce a lot of pyrite, zinc, marble, and ball clay. There's a lot of tobacco grown in Tennessee, but other income is derived from dairy products, livestock, nursery and greenhouse products, as well as cotton.

An entity called the Tennessee Valley Authority runs several dams and reservoirs in the state. A few of the numerous points of interest are the Great Smoky Mountains Natl. Park, the Hermitage (home of Andrew Jackson), the American Museum at Oak Ridge (atomic energy), three national military parks, and Rock City Gardens (Chattanooga).
