​Today's Moment to Remember
Picture
-On June 20, 1863, I became the 35th U.S. State

- 75% of my state is covered by forests

- The first major land battle in the Civil War was fought in my state - named the Battle of Philippi on June 3, 1861.

- About 15% of the United States' coal production comes from state

- My state nickname is the "Mountain State"

Do you know who I am yet?
Here's one last hint:
​
- My state is capital is Charleston​
​

​
No, I'm not South Carolina ;)
I'm West Virginia and my motto is "Mountaineers Are Always Free"

Also, here are some famous individuals from West Virginia that may inspire you: Chuck Yeager (Air Force test pilot and icon), Don Knotts (comedic actor), and Mary Lou Retton (Olympic gold medal gymnast).
