In ancient times, the
Eastern half of the state was underwater, and giant megladon
sharks roamed the waters. On land, there were woolly mammoths
and mastodons. Eventually, nearly 30 Native American groups
settled across the state.
In the 1580s, the British established two colonies in North
Carolina, both of which failed. In the 1600s permanent
settlers from Virginia began to move to North Carolina, and it
eventually became part of a British colony known as
"Carolina".
Many people believe that in 1775 North Carolina became the
first colony to declare independence from Great Britain. After
the American Revolution, North Carolina became the twelfth
state of the Union.
In 1861, North Carolina seceded from the Union and joined the
Confederacy in the Civil War. In 1865 North Carolina troops
surrendered, and in 1868 the state was brought back into the
Union.
The 20th century has seen North Carolina transformed into a
modern state, a transformation that began when the Wright
Brothers flew the first airplane in Kitty Hawk, NC in 1903.
