EXPLORE NEBRASKA
Nebraska was admitted as the 37th state of the United States on March 1, 1867. It is in both the Great Plains and the Midwestern United States. The state has two major land regions, the Dissected Till Plains and the Great Plains. The easternmost portion of the state was scoured by Ice Age glaciers leaving the Dissected Till Plains after the glaciers retreated. The Dissected Till Plains is a region of gently rolling hills.
Nebraska is home to 11 national park units, five of the park units rest on historic trails and is known as the Cornhusker State.
“Beautiful Nebraska, as you look around, you will find a rainbow reaching to the ground, all these wonders by the Master’s hand, Beautiful Nebraskaland.” composed by Jim Fras in 1960 and the lyrics were written by Jim Fras and Guy G. Miller.
