When is National Michigan Day?
Wednesday January 18thWe recognize each state in the order they entered the union, beginning with Hawaii and ending with Hawaii on Independence Day. We feature a small part of each state's past, foods, and the people who make up the state. There's so much more to discover, we can't help but celebrate our beautiful country even more.
Michigan has more shoreline than any of the contiguous 48 states, despite being surrounded by four of the five Great Lakes. Of the 50 states, only Alaska has more.
In 1783, the area was first discovered by the French, and it became a US territory in 1783. Michigan will be a center of industrial production, with iron and copper as a flume.
Michigan is unique in style, with the upper and lower peninsulas of the 26th state granted statehood distinct from each other in style. Ferrries were used to ferry travelers back and forth from one peninsula to the other, from one peninsula to the other. The Mackinac Bridge in 1957 linked the two sides, making the ride more convenient and safer. It is the third longest suspension bridge in the world at 26,372 feet long.
