Geschiedenis
Nevada became a state in 1864, during the Civil War, largely due to its silver mining boom. The Comstock Lode was one of the richest silver mines in the world, attracting thousands of prospectors and settlers.
In the 20th century, Nevada's economy diversified with the growth of tourism, particularly in Las Vegas. The state's unique legal framework, including gambling and marriage laws, has shaped its identity as a destination for entertainment and recreation.
