Nebraska is located on the
Great Plains of the
Midwestern United States and
Western United States.
Nebraska probably gets its
name from the archaic Otoe
words Ñí Brásge or the Omaha
Ní Btháska meaning "flat
water," after the Platte
River that flows through the
state. Once considered part
of the Great American
Desert, it is now a leading
farming and ranching state.
Native American tribes in
Nebraska have included the
Iowas, Omahas, Missourias,
Poncas, Pawnees, Otoes, and
various branches of the
Sioux.
