About Nevada
Gaining Statehood during the Civil War in 1864, Nevada was the 36th state to join the Union. Containing over 100,000 square miles of land, Nevada is the seventh largest state by land area. While almost 9 out of 10 residents live in the Las Vegas or Reno metropolitan areas, 86% of Nevada is actually owned by the U.S Federal Government.
Nevada has several nicknames and is known as the Sagebrush State, Silver State and Battle Born State. It is the most arid state in the country, as it receives the least amount of rainfall on average. The lack of rainfall means the majority of the state is considered to have a desert or semi-arid climate.
Las Vegas is Nevada's largest city and a major tourist attraction. World famous for its casinos, Las Vegas has more hotel rooms than any other place on earth, and has the majority of the world's largest hotels. Major resorts include the Bellagio, MGM Grand, The Venetian, The Wynn, and Mandalay Bay.
