History

Real Life

The region of what is now California was first settled by various indigenous tribes. It was explored by Europeans in the 16th to 17th century, and led to colonization by the Spanish Empire. In 1804, it was in the Alta California province within the Viceroyalty of New Spain. The area became a part of Mexico in 1821, following its successful war for independence, but was ceded to the United States in 1848 after the Mexican–American War. The western portion of Alta California was then admitted as the 31st state two years later in 1850.

California was originally a part of Mexico, and as such, is a host to a large Mexican-American population, in addition to its highly dense and diverse demographic. It is also the home of many attractions and landmarks, including Hollywood, Disneyland, the Golden Gate Bridge, and the Griffith Observatory.

Fictional

In Heyyy, It's the King!, the Guinness Book of Records has a record on a guy in California who shot two hundred baskets in a row at a high school gym.

Behind the scenes

• Hanna-Barbera produced all their cartoons in this state. The former studio was repurposed as real estate, minus the main studio, which is being preserved.
• The pilot of ...Where's Rodney? was filmed at Hollywood Center Studios in Hollywood, California.
