Additional Details:
Florida has its State Capitol in the city of Tallahassee, which was selected principally on account of its advantageous location from a geographical standpoint. Florida, often called the "Peninsular State," has an area 58,680 square miles, and was admitted to the Union in 1845. The State flower is the Japonica. Florida was so named, in 1512, by Ponce de Leon, because it was discovered on Easter Sunday, which in Spanish, is designated "Pascua FLorida."
