Known to her citizens as the North Star State or the Gopher State, Minnesota has never claimed to be the Land of The Giants but 2 famous giants do hail from Minnesota - Paul Bunyon & The Jolly Green Giant.

The 32nd state grew from a collection of small farm communities many settled by immigrants from Scandinavia & Germany.

Minnesota is best known for more than 15,000 lakes.
