Oklahoma Threat Level:
National Threat Level:
- On April 22, 1889, land opened for white settlement in Oklahoma. Some people entered in "sooner" than they were supposed to. They became known as Sooners. Eventually that nickname spread to all Oklahomans.
- The name "Oklahoma" comes from the Choctaw words: "okla" meaning people and "humma" meaning red, so the state's name literally means "red people."
