| OKLAHOMA
CITY was created in a matter of hours on April 22, 1889,
as part of the first Oklahoma Territory land rush. The city
was created out of thin air on the barren prairie as more
than 10,000 filed land claims. In 1928 oil was discovered
and the city saw its first oil strike with an active well
located on the grounds of the Oklahoma State Capitol. Besides
its wonderful museums, the Oklahoma State Museum of History
and the National Cowboy Museum, the city is sadly,
most visited today by thousands of people to view the
Oklahoma City National Memorial and reflecting pool
that pays homage to the lives lost in the tragic 1995 Federal
Building bombing incident. |
