Connecticut became the 5th state on January 9th, 1788. But as one of the original thirteen colonies, Connecticut has been part of the story of the US since its earliest days.

Our series of US geography videos "Visit the 50 States," gives you a little history and interesting facts about each state. For every state, youll learn when it entered the Union, whats its motto, how did it get its nickname, and see what the flag, seal, and state capitol building all look like. Well find the state capital on the map! Theres also fun trivia - do you know the state tree, flower, and bird? Watch and find out!
