Missouri History:: Origin of Missouri. Missouri gets its name from a tribe of Sioux Indians of the state called the Missouris.
Missouri became a state on August 10, 1821, and in 1833 the legislature designated most of the southern portion a single county. It was named for American Revolutionary War General Nathanael Greene, largely through a campaign by Springfield's founder, John Polk Campbell, to honor a man he admired.
