Modern History of Wyoming
In the late sixties and early seventies of the 19th century, the US government funded research into the northwestern regions of Wyoming. In 1871, an official survey of the area was carried out by an expedition led by geologist Ferdinand Heiden. It was as a result of his report that the US Congress passed legislation in 1872 to create Yellowstone National Park, the first US national park.
After the victory in 1877 of the United States in the war with the Indians, known as the “Great Sioux War” (or “War for the Black Hills”), the Indians finally lost control of the lands of Wyoming and were resettled on reservations.
Although Wyoming never experienced the “fever” caused by the discovery of precious metals, like Alaska, California or Colorado, large reserves of minerals were found here in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Mining of coal, uranium, oil, gas, bentonite clays and today are the basis of the economy of Wyoming.
In September 1885, the massacre of Chinese miners known as the Rock Springs Massacre took place in the mining town of Rock Springs in southwestern Wyoming.
The Chinese agreed to work in coal mines for less wages than those from Europe. Naturally, the owners of coal mining companies gave them preference when hiring. There were still no trade unions capable of resolving contradictions in a civilized way.
