[de] Kaskaskia

Kaskaskia ist ein Ort am Mississippi im Randolph County im Bundesstaat Illinois in den Vereinigten Staaten. Kaskaskia war die erste Hauptstadt von Illinois, verlor diesen Status jedoch im Jahr 1820 an Vandalia. Die große Überschwemmung im April 1881 zerstörte große Teile der Stadt. Die Flut veränderte das Flussbett des Mississippi von der Westseite der Stadt auf deren Ostseite. Die alte Staatsgrenze blieb jedoch bestehen, so dass Kaskaskia der einzige Ort in Illinois ist, der westlich des Mississippi liegt. Das alte Flussbett ist heute ein Bayou. Die Landfläche von Kaskaskia Island beträgt 0,28 km², die 1993 vom Mississippi erneut fast vollständig überflutet wurde.

[en] Kaskaskia, Illinois

Kaskaskia is a village in Randolph County, Illinois. Having been inhabited by indigenous peoples, it was settled by France as part of the Illinois Country. It was named for the Kaskaskia people. Its population peaked at about 7,000 in the 18th century, when it was a regional center. During the American Revolutionary War, the town, which by then had become an administrative center for the British Province of Quebec, was taken by the Virginia militia during the Illinois campaign. It was designated as the county seat of Illinois County, Virginia, after which it became part of the Northwest Territory in 1787. Kaskaskia was later named as the capital of the United States' Illinois Territory, created on February 3, 1809. In 1818, when Illinois became the 21st U.S. state, the town briefly served as the state's first capital until 1819, when the capital was moved to more centrally located Vandalia.
