South Dakota Topography
South Dakota was named after the Dakota tribe of Sioux Indians. "Dakota" is the Sioux word for "friend". Both North Dakota and South Dakota were admitted to statehood in the USA on November 2, 1889. North Dakota's terrain rises gradually from the east to the Black Hills in the west and the Badlands in the southwest. The Missouri River bisects the state. Native American Reservations cover large areas of western North Dakota. The most notable tourist attraction is Mount Rushmore, in the Black Hills region.
