Colorado is a
state of the
United States encompassing most of the
southern Rocky Mountains as well as the northeastern portion of the
Colorado Plateau and the western edge of the
Great Plains. It is the
8th largest geographically and
21st most populous U.S. state. The estimated population of Colorado was 5,540,545 on July 1, 2016, an increase of 10.17% since the
2010 United States Census.

The state was named for the
Colorado River, which
Spanish travelers named the
Río Colorado for the
ruddy silt the river carried from the mountains. The
Territory of Colorado was organized on February 28, 1861, and on August 1, 1876,
U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant signed Proclamation 230 admitting Colorado to the
Union as the 38th state. Colorado is nicknamed the "
Centennial State" because it became a state a century after the signing of the
United States Declaration of Independence.
