Looks like bacteria or a virus taking over its host.

Oklahoma was interesting. Was it an Indiana conservation in the 19th century? The population seemed to grow all around it and then it just took off.

Yeah it was one of the last states. They had this thing called the "land run" where they literally gave away land for free, you just had to stake it first. And the people who started staking stuff the day before they were officially supposed to were called "Sooners" and that's why OU is called the Sooners

They should add in the native population decline, for perspective.

I assume it's not showing Native Americans because they weren't considered "part of the US"?
Yes probably. I don't think Native Americans did censuses, and if some of them did they didn't report that information back to the US government at any point.
