High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The territorial era of Minnesota covers the history of the land that is now the modern U.S. state of Minnesota from the Louisiana Purchase in 1803, to its achieving statehood in 1858. The Minnesota Territory itself was formed only in 1849 but the area had a rich history well before this. Though there was a long history of European presence in the area before 1800s, it was during the 1800s that the United States began to establish a firm presence in what would become Minnesota. Many of the facets of Minnesota culture that are perceived as the area's early history in fact originated after this era. Notably, the heavy Scandinavian immigration for which the state is known, and the pioneering days chronicled by author Laura Ingalls Wilder occurred after statehood beginning in the later 1800s. The first half of the 19th century was rather a much rougher era characterized by sparse communities, hardship, and, to some degree, lawlessness. Native Americans far outnumbered settlers of European ancestry until the 1850s.
