Histoire : La région fut explorée par J.S. Smith (1827), Kit Carson, J.C. Fremont, (1843). Voie de passage vers la Californie, elle fut parcourue par les Américains à partir de 1849 (ruée vers l'or); elle appartenait au Mexique qui la céda aux États-Unis en 1848 (en même temps que le Texas et le Nouveau-Mexique). Compris dans l'Utah (1850), le Nevada se développa anarchiquement autour des mines d'or et d'argent. 4, record 1, French, - Nevada
