Angle Township on the north edge of Lake of the Woods makes Minnesota the northernmost state of the continental forty-eight.
Also known as the Gopher State, it extends along the northern shore of Lake Superior.

Fur trading in the densely wooded territory led to French treaties in the late 17th century.
The Mississippi River divides a portion of the state; its source is Lake Itasca.
This natural boundary also divided the region when the Treaty of Paris determined the United States’ western border after the Revolutionary War.
Minnesota would not become whole until 1836 when it became part of the Wisconsin Territory, 33 years following the Louisiana Purchase.
