Iowa is a U.S. state located in the Midwestern region of the United States of America, an area often referred to as the "American Heartland." It derives its name from the Ioway people, one of the many American Indian tribes that occupied the state at the time of European exploration. Iowa was a part of the French French colonial empire of New France. After the Louisiana Purchase, settlers laid the foundation for an agriculture-based economy in the heart of the Corn Belt. Iowa is often known as the "Food Capital of the World,” but Iowa’s economy, culture, and landscape are diverse. In the mid and late 20th century, Iowa’s agricultural economy transitioned to a diversified economy of advanced manufacturing, processing, financial services, biotechnology, and green energy production. Iowa is one of the safest states in which to live and its population is among the most literate and best-educated.

The area of Iowa was claimed for France and remained France territory until 1763, when the French, realizing defeat in the French and Indian War, transferred ownership to its ally, Spain. Spain practiced very loose control over the Iowa region, granting trading licenses to French and British people traders. Iowa was part of a territory known as Louisiana (New France) Louisiane' or Louisiana, and European traders were interested in lead and furs obtained by Indians. The Sauk and Meskwaki effectively controlled trade on the Mississippi in the late 18th and early 19th century. Among the early traders was Julien Dubuque.
