About the Sooner State

Rich in Native American history, Oklahoma is home to 67 tribes and nations, 39 of which have headquarters in the state. The state name itself is from the Choctaw language: "Okla," or people, and "humma," meaning red people.

Oklahoma also features the historic Route 66, one of the country's first highways, which extended from Chicago to Los Angeles until the 1980s, when it was discontinued. More miles run through Oklahoma than any other state, and its history and character are preserved through museums and monuments.

Oklahoma City is the state's largest city and also its capital. The city offers museums, entertainment, fine dining, nightlife, and an annual arts festival that attracts one million people each year. Sonographers graduating from Oklahoma sonography schools may find employment opportunities in the city's many hospitals and medical practices.

Tulsa is Oklahoma's second largest city and boasts two art museums, a zoo, and a performing arts center that features performances by the Tulsa Ballet, Tulsa Opera, and Tulsa Symphony Orchestra, among others.
