This logo resembles the InFocus Corporation's logo. However, the sharp between letters is straight instead of a right triangle and is located between O and C (the O is the fourth letter and the C is the fifth one while for Microsoft's, the first said letter is the fifth one and the S is the sixth).
French outposts were established on the Wabash, Illinois, Mississippi and other western rivers. In 1729, French traders and groups of Delaware, Shawnee, and Mingo established Lower Shawneetown in Ohio. French hegemony remained in place until 1763, when France's defeat in the French and Indian War brought the whole vast western territory into British hands.
The vast territory included all of the land located generally west of Pennsylvania, northwest of the Ohio River, and east of the Mississippi River. It encompassed what would become the states of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin, as well as the northeastern part of Minnesota. In 1803, Ohio was the first state created from the vast lands of the Northwest Territory. It was followed by Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, Wisconsin and Minnesota, all then a part of the Indiana Territory.
