Official state nickname: "The Natural State." First official state motto: Regnant Populi ("The People(s) Rule"?). Year they decided that was either grammatically incorrect in Latin or not quite what they wanted to say: 1907. Current official state motto: Regnat Populus ("The People Rule")….

Including an official state butterfly, which the law explicitly states is not legally protected in any way.

The official crap of America’s northest state.

NOTE: This was drafted before the 2023 addition of an official cookie to the state’s roster of official crap.
