Although Nevada is the seventh largest state by area, it is sparesly populated desert land driven economically by casinos in Las Vegas, Reno, Lake Tahoe and many small towns. Nevada's name comes from the Sierra Nevada mountains named by Spain, who lost control of the land to Mexico in the 19th century before becoming a U.S. territory. It became a northern state during the Civil War. Silver attracted a mining community starting in 1859. Gold mining has also helped the state's economy.
