Территорию Индианы одновременно начали исследовать французы и англичане. Французы построили ряд оборонительных укреплений и попытались отвоевать земли у британцев. Однако эта попытка закончилась провалом, и, в результате подписания Парижского мирного договора эта территория официально отошла к Британии. В результате Войны за независимость США Индиана стала американской территорией. В 1816 году Индиана получила статус штата США.

Government
Indiana's form of government is closely modeled on the federal government with three branches: executive, legislative and judicial. The Governor, elected for a four-year term, heads the executive branch. The General Assembly, the legislative branch, consists of the Senate and the House of Representatives. Indiana's fifty State Senators are elected for four-year terms and one hundred State Representatives for two-year terms. In odd-numbered years, the General Assembly meets in a sixty-one day session. In even-numbered years, the Assembly meets for thirty session days. The judicial branch consists of the Indiana Supreme Court, Court of Appeals and local circuit courts. On the national level, Indiana is represented in Congress by two Senators and nine Representatives.
