A little information about Mississippi

Mississippi became a state in 1817, but its history goes back tens of thousands of years when hunters and gatherers arrived in the Deep South. Today the state is known for its southern culture and history, including, blues music, the Mississippi Delta and River, slavery, cotton, the Civil War, civil rights activism, and now catfish production. The state produces the majority of farm-raised catfish in the nation. It also celebrates a major tourist driven economy, as vacationers flock to the state for adventures along the Mississippi river, hunting, fishing, boating, and for folks looking to explore the rich southern culture. With the lowest cost of living in the United States, Mississippi is a great place to start a business or raise a family.
