Indiana. The state's name means Indian Land or Land of the Indians, named so for the Indian tribes that lived there when white settlers arrived. While its meaning might be simple enough, the way it got the name is a little more interesting.
President Asks Congress to Lift the Embargo Against Cuba. President Obama asked Congress to begin to lift the embargo against Cuba during the State of the Union address this evening. In Cuba, we are ending a policy that was long past its expiration date.
Cuba will hopefully be better in the near future, when the embargo is lifted and anyone can travel there. The embargo is a block so that no one in the USA can trade with Cuba. They need new technology, and stores opened so everyone can buy computers and cell phones.
