Utah

State, (pop., 1997 est.: 2,059,000), western U.S. It covers 84,899 sq mi (219,888 sq km); its capital is Salt Lake City. Utah contains the Great Salt Lake and parts of the middle Rocky Mtns. and Uinta Mtns. The western third of the state is a broad desert-like area. About 70% of the land is owned by either the federal or the state government. The region was inhabited as early as 10,000 BC. In c. AD 400 the Pueblo Indians lived throughout Utah; they were followed by other groups, including the Shoshone, Ute, and Paiute Indians. Spanish missionaries visited there in the late 18th century. It passed to Mexico in 1821. While U.S. pioneer Jim Bridger discovered the Great Salt Lake in 1824, the area's first permanent settlers were Mormons, who were led to the valley of the Great Salt Lake in 1847 by Brigham Young. The U.S. acquired the region after the Mexican War, and in 1850 organized the Utah Territory; it was reduced to the area of the present state by 1868. A conflict between Mormon authorities and the U.S. government known as the Utah War occurred in 1857-58, and statehood was denied until the Mormons renounced polygamy. When they did, it entered the Union in 1896 as the 45th state. The Mormon Church has officially been politically neutral since the early 20th century and the influence of economic blocs has become more important. Utah has large reserves of coal and petroleum, and is the world's largest producer of beryllium. Major industries include agriculture and tourism.
