Alabama is located in the southern region of the United States. It is bordered by Tennessee to the north, Georgia to the east, Florida and the Gulf of Mexico to the south, and Mississippi to the west.

With a long and varied history, Alabama became the focal point of Spanish explorers in the 16th century and was later settled by the French who established the first outpost at Mobile in 1702. Later under British rule, Alabama territory officially became part of the new United States following the Revolutionary War. As the drums of war again sounded in the mid-1800's, Alabama gave rise to the southern Confederacy when, for a short period beginning in 1861, Montgomery was chosen as the Confederate capital.

Following the Civil War, Alabama's economy continued to depend largely on agriculture, and here is were Booker T. Washington performed his famous agricultural research at Tuskegee Institute.
