Alabama is a state located in the
Southern United States. It is bordered by Tennessee to
the north, Georgia to the east, Florida and the Gulf
of Mexico to the south, and Mississippi to the west.
The twenty-second state admitted to the Union, Alabama
seceded from the union in 1861 to become part of the
Confederate States of America. Following the Civil War
and Reconstruction, Alabama was readmitted to the
union in 1868.
Until World War II, Alabama, like many Southern
states, remained mired in poverty. In the following
years, Alabama would emerge as a growing economic
power as the economy of the state transitioned from
agriculture to diversified interests in heavy
manufacturing, mineral extraction, education, and high
technology. Today, the state is heavily invested in
the aerospace, education, health care, banking, and
various heavy industries including automobile
manufacturing and mineral extraction.
Alabama is known as The Heart of Dixie and the
Yellowhammer state. The capital is Montgomery and the
largest city is Birmingham. |
