What is the nickname of Minnesota?
Answer:
The North Star State
Why this is the correct answer
Minnesota's nickname, the North Star State, comes from the state motto "L'Etoile du Nord," a French phrase meaning Star of the North. This reflects Minnesota's position as the northernmost contiguous state east of the Rocky Mountains and its history of French exploration.
