Hello today I am going to give a presentation about California. First, I am going to tell you the most important infromation about California, then I am going to explain its history and after that I will talk about some of the attractions.
So what is California. California is a western state in the USA. It is bordered by the pacific ocean in the west, Oregon in the north, Nevada and Ariyona in the east and Mexico in the south. The capital city is Sacramento. California has a population of about 39 million people and the land area is 403,934 sq km big. It is the third largest state after Alaska and Texas in the US by area, while by population it is the most populated state. It also has the largest economy of 2.9 trillion dollars of all the american states.
The origin of the name of California came after Califia, a myth island paradise from a spanish roman that was written about 1510. The nickname of california is the golden state because of the gold that was discovered back in 1848, but it has many more nicknames like the Grape state, sunshine state and golden west
The states largest cities are Los Angeles, San Jose, San Fransisco, San Diego. The most common languages are English, Chinese and Spanish. Another information is that California has the highest point Mount Whitney and the lowest point Death Valley in the United States.
Now I am going to talk about the history. From the beginning , California has been inhabited by native americans. The first european that visited California in 1542 was a portuguese explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo. In 1821 when Mexico became independent from Spain California became a province of Mexico. In the 1840s settlers started to rebel against the mexican rule.After that in 1846, it bacame an independent country because of the group of settlers who were led by John Charles Fremont.The new independent country was called the bear flag republic.
This independence didnt last long because of the mexican american war so 1848 the republic became a territory of the USA. In 1848 the gold rush began because James Marschall discovered gold at Sutters Mill the gold rush lasted from 1848 to 1858. Between 7 years over 300,000 people moved to California . California first beecame a state on september 9th 1850as the 31st state of the US.
