FACTS ABOUT NEW MEXICO
A GREAT TEAM BUILDING LOCATION
The state name New Mexico is an Americanized version of the words “Nuevo Mexico,” the Spanish name for the upper Rio Grande. Mexico, from its Aztec source means “place of Mexitli” one of the Aztec gods. Before “Land of Enchantment” became the state slogan, New Mexico went by the nickname “The Sunshine State,” because the entire state basks in mostly sunshine year-round.
Congress admitted New Mexico as the 47th state in the Union on January 6, 1912. The admission of the neighboring State of Arizona on February 14, 1912 completed the contiguous 48 states.
The world’s first Atom Bomb was detonated on July 16, 1945 on the White Sands Testing Range near Alamogordo. The bomb was designed and manufactured in Los Alamos. On the same desert grounds where today’s space age missiles are tested, ten-thousand-year-old arrowheads have also been found. Over its relatively long history it has also been occupied by Native American populations, Spanish colonists, it has been a province of Mexico, and a U.S. territory. New Mexico has the highest percentage of people of Hispanic ancestry of any state, some recent immigrants and others descendants of Spanish colonists. The state also has a large Native American population. New Mexican history has ranged from arrows to atoms and has embraced Indian, Spanish and Anglo cultures. Few states can claim such a distinctive past.
