亚利桑纳于1863年2月24日成为美国的新领土
为了得到金子和银子，你能跋涉多远？亚利桑纳在1863年2月24日成为独立的领土后，新英格兰的居民跋涉到当地寻找金子，而成立了普瑞斯考特镇 (Prescott) 。
当他们在亚利桑纳州的墓石市 (Tombstone) 发现银子之后，到了1877年，已经有将近7千人到那边添加挖矿的行列。4年之后，这个地方变成有名的枪战地，后来称为「O.K.镇」 (O.
K. Corral) 。在1880年时，因为来自世界各地的寻宝人涌入亚利桑纳州，这个地区也就越来越蓬勃发展。
在1912年，亚利桑纳州正式成为一州，州界也得到确立。不过，这些珍贵的矿藏与枪客、都只是亚利桑纳州的诸多常规之一罢了。
How far would you travel for silver and gold? After Arizona became a separate territory on February 24, 1863, New Englanders searching for gold came to Arizona and founded the town of Prescott.
When silver was discovered at Tombstone, Arizona, in 1877, nearly 7,000 people came to the territory. Four years later, the rough frontier town became the site of the famous gunfight at the O.K. Corral. By the 1880's the Arizona territory was bustling with fortune seekers from all around the world.
In 1912, no longer a lawless frontier, Arizona became a state, but precious metals and gunslingers were only a part of Arizona's heritage.
