class="Normal">, 6 347 200 st. Sastoji se od vlažnijeg, zap. priobalnog dijela uz tihooceanski zaljev Puget Sound koji uključuje i sjev. dio Primorskih planina (o. 1/3 površine) i sušnije unutrašnjosti <i>i</i> od Kaskadnoga gorja (o. 2/3 površine). Više od 50% površine prekrivaju šume. Prostor sr. i donjeg dijela porječja Columbije, koja teče ist. i sred. dijelom sav. države te granicom sa sav. državom Oregon, veliko je vodno bogatstvo; na Columbiji i njezinim pritocima desetak velikih hidroelektrana (najveća Grand Coulee Dam). Velika proizvodnja el. energije osigurava raznoliku industr. proizvodnju (zrakoplovna i svemirska, aluminijska, automob., kem., brodograđevna, petrokem. ind.), a akumulacijska jezera i sustavi za natapanje intenzivnu poljoprivredu: uzgoj žitarica, voća (najveća proizvodnja jabuka u SAD-u, kruške, grožđe), povrće, cvijeće; mliječno i mesno stočarstvo, ovčarstvo, peradarstvo; šumarstvo, ribarstvo; rudarstvo (olovo, cink, šljunak, pijesak). Važna regija za povezivanje i trgovinu s Aljaskom, tihooceanskom obalom Kanade i Azijom. Razvijen turizam; tri NP (Olympic, Mt. Rainier, North Cascades) i mnogo nižih zaštićenih i rekreacijskih područja. Većina st. živi u urbanim aglomeracijama uz Puget Sound. Veći gradovi: Seattle, Spokane (na I), Tacoma, Olympia (gl. grad), Vancouver, Bellevue. U W. postoje 22 manja indijanska rezervata (najveći Yakima).</span></div> </div> <div align="left" style="margin-left: 0pt;"><span class="Normal"><i>Povijest</i></span></div> <div align="left" style="margin-left: 0pt;"><span class="Normal"> Obale današnje države W. otkrili su španj. pomorci 1775. Idućih godina područje W. istraživali su Englezi. Prvo naselje (Spokane House) uspostavljeno je 1810. U idućim desetljećima SAD i Vel. Britanija bore se za prevlast nad današnjim područjem W. (tada u sastavu teritorija Oregon Country); 1848. amer. Kongres usvojio je zakon o ustroju Oregon Countryja, uspostavljena je prva vlada i ubrzano useljivanje. Današnje granice države W. uspostavljene su 1863. God. 1889. Washington Territory primljen je u Uniju kao 42. sav. država SAD-a. Jedina je amer. država kojoj je naziv odredio sam Kongres.</span></div> </div> <div align="right" style="margin-top:10px !important;clear:both;"><div id="shm_shr_40112905" style="display:none;"></div><div class="sharexyWidgetNoindexUniqueClassName"><div id="shr_40112905"></div></div></div></div></div> <div class="VidiDrugeEdicije" id="LinkEdicija"><div class="cleared"></div><div class="vidiedicija">Pogledaj natuknicu u drugim edicijama:</div><div class="ikonalinka"><span class="uputnica"><a href="http://www.enciklopedija.hr/Natuknica.aspx?ID=65859">Hrvatska enciklopedija</a></span></div><div class="cleared"></div></div> <div class="pe-postfootericons pe-metadata-icons"><span class="pe-postdateicon"><span class="date">Objavljeno:</span> <span class="entry-date" title="15:59">22. lipnja 2012.</span></span></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <footer class="pe-footer clearfix"> <div class="pe-footer-inner"> <div class="pe-content-layout"> <div class="pe-content-layout-row"> <div class="pe-layout-cell layout-item-0" style="width: 100%">  <div style="position:relative;padding-left:10px;padding-right:10px"> <p>Copyright © 2013. <a href="http://www.lzmk.hr/">Leksikografski zavod Miroslav Krleža</a>.
