Indiana 19th State

Indiana

Hi! My name is Corey. I go to school in Indianapolis. Indianapolis is the capital of Indiana and its the 13th largest city in the USA. We are the 19th State admitted to the Union. Our State bird is the cardinal, State tree is the tulip, and our motto is "the Hoosier State". Hoosier means "land of the Indians". Indianapolis is home to the world's largest children's museum. We have a pro-football team called the Indiana Colts.
