of the Indians)之意。它于1816年添加联邦,成为美国第19州。现今的印地安纳州是一个由许多小镇及中小型城市组成的州。印地安纳波里(Indianapolis)是该州境内的第一大城市,也是印地安纳州的首府,另外,它也是着名的国内年度赛车比赛「印地安纳波里500」的举办场地。住在印地安纳州的居民普遍被称为「山地人」(Hoosier),虽然没有人确知这个称号源起何处。牡丹是印地安纳州的州花。
Indiana means "land of the Indians." It joined the Union in 1816 as the 19th state. Today, Indiana is a state of mostly small towns and midsize cities. Its largest city and capital is Indianapolis, where the nation's most famous auto race, the Indianapolis 500, is held each year. The state's residents are commonly referred to as "Hoosiers" although no one seems certain just how the name originated. The peony is the state flower.
