It was eventually penetrated by Europeans, specifically the French, and later on the British who grew more in numbers. Its rich history dates back for over 12,000 years already, with Paleo-Indians as the original people, hunting down animals from the ice age. Today, with the females making up 50% of the population, it now has a 6 million population. Lineages come from different nationalities such as English, Germans, Scandinavians, Belgians, Dutch, Swiss, Finns, Irish, Poles, Mexicans, Africans, and Hmongs.
A mandate declared in the year of 1852 declared that there must be a registration of births and deaths already. However, it was not taken seriously by the people. But in 1878, a law similar to the one earlier declared was again passed and gained more participation from the people. Yet it was only in 1907 that the agency of State Bureau of Vital Statistics was formally established.
