Oklahoma

The Great Plains of Oklahoma was procured from the substantial Louisiana Purchase in 1803. In 1834 it was set aside as a Native American territory. However, half was later given to U.S. settlers (and named Oklahoma). In 1907 the whole area became a state. Thanks to its vast oil production, Oklahoma was one of the U.S.’s originally wealthy states. Although it still provides vast amounts of oil to North America, its natural gas production brings in the most revenue.

Farming is also significantly important for the state, with peanuts, wheat, cotton, hay, and sorghum produced there. It also attracts national and international visitors, with its National Cowboy Hall of Fame, the Cherokee Cultural Center, the Will Rogers Memorial, and Lake Texoma. A major bonus for small business owners with little initial capital is the state’s low cost of living.
