State of Wyoming is located to the West of the United Syayes, between two other states Colorado and Utah. The capital of  state Wyoming is Cheynne.

Before Chistopher Colombus' doscovery the New World in state lived Indians or Native Americans. But when Europeans discovered the USA they found this land.

At the beginning of XIX century during the Lewis and Clark Expedition, one of this member John Colter described lands of Wyoming. But all information was confirmed later, by other researchers.

Wyoming is known that in 1869 it allowed women to vote. Before it women didn't have right to vote. For that time it was very good.

Just on July 10, 1890 Wyoming became forty-fourth state in the United States of America. So Wyoming and his population saw many different events, including horrible wars: Civil War and World War II.

P.S. History of Wyoming continues today, too.

"The White House".

In the capital of the United States Washington, DC, 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue is a very individual address. It is the White House, the home of the president of the USA.

At the beginning the White House was grey and called the Presidental Palace. It was built during eight years (from 1792-1800). At that time, the capital Washington, was built too.

The first president of America George Washington never lived in the Presidental Palace. The first president who lives there was John Adams, the second president USA president. His wife Mrs. Adams didn't really like her new house. She often complained about the cold. Fifty fireplaces were not enough to keep the house warm.

In 1812 the USA and Britain went on war. In 1814 the British invaded to Washington. They distroyed the Presidental Palace.

After the war, the architect, rebuilt the president's home. It was painted in white.

In 1901 this building became known as the "White House".

Today it has reception and dining room, for the president and his family.

Tourists can visited the White House only in several rooms. Because they don't want to disturb the president.
