During the 1500’s, the Spanish and French explored the South Carolina territory and were unsuccessful in establishing a settlement. In 1670, the first permanent English colony was established at Albemarle Point on the Ashley River and eventually changed its location to Charles Town, present-day Charleston. South Carolina officially separated from North Carolina in 1729 and entered statehood as the 8th state on May 23, 1788.
Historically an agricultural state, the farms of South Carolina are now fewer in number, but larger in size. South Carolina’s peach production ranks third in the nation and its tobacco crops rank fourth in overall production. Other important agricultural products include watermelons, peanuts, turkeys, and cattle. South Carolina possesses the only commercial tea plantation in the United States on Wadmalaw Island, near Charleston.
The abundant and well-distributed rainfall of South Carolina has helped its agricultural endeavors and provided a good source hydroelectric power that has enabled the state to become more industrialized. Many of the manufacturing industries of the state are dependent upon the agricultural commodities, such as the textiles industry’s dependency upon the cotton crops and the paper industry’s reliance on the lumber industry. Leading manufacturing products include apparel, chemicals, machinery, and automobiles.
Other important factors in the state’s economy are the military bases and nuclear facilities that provide sources of employment for many South Carolinians. More recently the state has experienced an increase in the tourism industry, which is now ranked as the state’s main source of revenue.
The mild climate of the “Palmetto State” makes it a favorable location for residents and year-round visitors. The scenic views of the Blue Ridge Mountains and the beaches of the “Grand Strand” and Sea Islands are destinations for residents and visitors alike. The major ports of Beaufort, Charleston, and Georgetown are chief ports of entry to the Southeast region of the United States and also possess some of South Carolina’s most historic sites.
