State of Florida Information

State Capital
Tallahassee was selected as the capital in 1824. The location was a compromise between groups interested in locating the capital in Pensacola in west Florida and St. Augustine in east Florida. The legislature met for the first time in a log cabin near the site of the present capitol building.

Geography
There are 320 known springs in the state and 27 are classified as "first magnitude." First magnitude springs produce at least 100 cubic feet of fresh water per second. There are also 1,711 streams, rivers and creeks in Florida. The longest river is the St. Johns with a length of 273 miles. The St. Johns River is also one of the few that flow north. Perhaps the most famous of the state's rivers is the Suwannee which was the basis of the State song, “Old Folks at Home.”
