Located in the Midwestern part of United States, Illinois is the fourth most populous state in the country. The state of Illinois is limited to Wisconsin to the north, Indiana to the east, Kentucky to the south, and Iowa and Missouri to the west. Illinois’ history is quite similar to that of many other American states: the region belonged to France until 1763, when it came under British rule. After the United States War of Independence in 1783, the Americans took control of the territory and, on December 3, 1818, created the State of Illinois.
