Idaho: Its state seal is the only one designed by a woman. Emma Sarah Etine Edwards, the daughter of a former Missouri governor who settled in Idaho, won an 1890 contest with her design of a woman representing liberty and a man in miner’s garb, as well as elk horns and mountains as well as the Latin phrase “Esto Perpetua,” meaning “in perpetuity.” Not only did she get the glory of having designed the state seal, she won $100 in the contest.

Iowa: A mammoth amount of mammoths died here. This state is lousy with mammoth bones. The ancient creatures were once abundant in this region, and areas like Mahaska County have turned up a number of the creature’s remnants, with a number of digs underway.

Kentucky: It used to be part of Virginia. Yes, Kentucky was originally a county of Virginia, established in 1776. But as the citizens of the western part of the state became frustrated that their state capital was so far off, in the city of Richmond, they petitioned for statehood, becoming America’s 15th state in 1792.

Maine: It has an actual desert. We think of this state as a place of forests, lakes and lighthouses. But Maine also has its own desert—the 40-acre Desert of Maine, an expanse of silt and sand that came about due to over-farming but which has since become a popular tourist attraction in its own right.
