The State of Superior (or State of Ontonagon) is a proposed "51st state" that would be created by the secession of the Upper Peninsula from the rest of Michigan, named for adjacent Lake Superior. Some proposals would also incorporate territory from the northern Lower Peninsula, northern Wisconsin, and even Minnesota. The proposals are spurred by cultural differences, geographic separation from Lower Michigan, and a belief that the problems of the "Superior Region" are ignored by distant state governments. When the Northwest Territory was being organized by the fledgling U.S. government, Thomas Jefferson proposed a state which he named Sylvania, including the Upper Peninsula and territory that is now northern Wisconsin and northeastern Minnesota. The idea has gained serious attention at tim

  • The State of Superior (or State of Ontonagon) is a proposed "51st state" that would be created by the secession of the Upper Peninsula from the rest of Michigan, named for adjacent Lake Superior. Some proposals would also incorporate territory from the northern Lower Peninsula, northern Wisconsin, and even Minnesota. The proposals are spurred by cultural differences, geographic separation from Lower Michigan, and a belief that the problems of the "Superior Region" are ignored by distant state governments. When the Northwest Territory was being organized by the fledgling U.S. government, Thomas Jefferson proposed a state which he named Sylvania, including the Upper Peninsula and territory that is now northern Wisconsin and northeastern Minnesota. The idea has gained serious attention at times, but faces substantial practical obstacles. (en)

  • A proposta do Estado Superior (ou Estado de Ontonagon) é um possível "51º estado" envolvendo a secessão da Península Superior do Michigan, e possivelmente outras partes do norte de Michigan, e em algumas propostas, alguns dos condados do norte do estado do Wisconsin também. A proposta é estimulada por diversos fatores, incluindo as diferenças culturais, a separação geográfica e a crença de que as capitais de Lansing no Michigan e Madison no Wisconsin, ignoram os problemas sociais da "Região Superior". A mesma área foi referida como um possível estado futuro chamado Sylvania por Thomas Jefferson. Nomeado em referência ao Lago Superior, a ideia ganhou uma atenção séria, embora seja improvável que alguma vez venha a ser concretizada por causa da grande quantidade de financiamento que a área recebe das partes mais baixas do Michigan, e por causa da conclusão da Ponte Mackinac em 1957, que deu à Península Superior uma conexão rodoviária direta com o resto do estado. Vários legisladores proeminentes, incluindo o político local da Península Superior, , tentaram aprovar tal legislação na década de 1970, mas não obtiveram sucesso. Se a Península Superior de Michigan tornar-se um estado, o novo estado teria atualmente uma população menor do que a de qualquer outro estado, com seus 320 mil habitantes representando apenas 60% da população de Wyoming (o estado de menor população do país) e menos de 50% da população do Alasca. O estada estaria na 40º posição em relação à área de terra, e seria maior que o estado de Maryland. Sua cidade mais populosa, Marquette, tem uma população menor do que Burlington em Vermont, que é a cidade menos populosa das cinquenta cidades que são as mais populosas de seus respectivos estados.
