History Of Alabama

In 1819 Alabama joined the union as the 22nd state. But 1.000s of years before that the region was occupied by North American Indians. In the 16th century people from Europe reached the region. Cotton and slave labor were central to Alabama's economy during the first half of the 19th century. Alabama played a key role in the American Civil War. Montgomery was the Confederacy's first capital. Following the war, segregation of blacks and whites prevailed throughout much of the South. Alabama was at the center of the American Civil Rights Movement in the mid-20th century.
