Historical and political development

After its successful independence from the British crown, Ohio initially became part of the Northwest Territory, which also included areas of other present-day states. In addition, the so-called Indiana Territory was founded, which included today's states of Indiana, Wisconsin and Illinois. Before a U.S. territory could become a territory, the area had to have at least 60,000 inhabitants.

Ohio had only 45,000 inhabitants in 1801, but rapid population growth was becoming apparent. As a result, the U.S. Congress decided to establish the state, so that Ohio was admitted to the United States as the 17th state by President Thomas Jefferson two years later.

In the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865, Ohio played an important role due to its central geographic location. 2,000 citizens of the state died in the Battle of Shiloh. Ohio Governor David Todd deployed 5,000 volunteer soldiers to the Union Army when General Stonewall Jackson marched on Washington DC. Ohio represented the major generals of the Union Army Ulysses S. Grant, Philip Sheridan and William Tecumseh Sherman.

There are many prehistoric finds in Ohio, such as the so-called mounds. These are man-made man-made hills built for funeral and other cultural occasions. The capital of Ohio is Columbus. Economically important cities are Cincinnati and Cleveland.

Eight U.S. presidents are from Ohio. With this value, Ohio is at the top together with Virginia. From a political point of view, the state belongs to the so-called swing states, which are particularly competitive in the presidential elections. A swing state is a state in which both Republicans and Democrats have a good chance of winning an election. Retracted majorities are often very thin. While the Northeast prefers to vote democratically, the Republicans are well represented in the South.

The climate in Ohio is not too warm and not too cold

Ohio has a continental climate with clearly distinct seasons. Summers are mild to warm with temperatures between 15 and 25 degrees. Winter is not too cold, the thermometer rarely falls below the -5 degree mark. Due to the lack of extreme temperature gradients, Ohio is a year-round travel destination. A holiday in autumn is recommended when the warm late summer lets the forests shine in a bright color. The chestnut trees that gave Ohio the nickname chestnut state stand out.

A less strong population development than in other states

Like some other states, Ohio saw a large population increase, especially in the start-up phase. In 1810 Ohio enjoyed an immigration rate of more than 400 percent. Until the middle of the century, the population growth remained comparatively high with values ​​of 152, 60 and 30 percent. While the great gold rush broke out in many states at the time, Ohio was spared because it is a low-resource state.

While the population in the "gold states" literally exploded, it remained constant in Ohio. By 1930, the influx rate of new residents ranged between 13 and 21 percent. From 1940 the population growth decreased significantly. By 2010, these values ​​were only between 1.5 and 9.7 percent. There were only significant outliers in 1960 with just over 22 percent.

Ohio is home to many American Americans, who make up the largest proportion of the population, 25.7 percent. Other large population groups are Americans with Irish and English roots with 13.4 and 8.2 percent, respectively. Apart from the parentage, the population is quite homogeneous because 84.5 percent of the 11,536,000 inhabitants are white. Blacks and African Americans are fairly well represented with just over 13 percent. Asians account for 2.1 percent of the population.

Although there were comparatively many Indian tribes here until the end of the 19th century, the indigenous people are only represented here with 0.8 percent. While the German-born population is mainly located in the northwest, the British and American roots can be found in the south and in the middle of Ohio. African Americans and blacks prefer to live in big cities like Cincinnati and Cleveland.
