Tennessee History
In 1897, a major international exhibition was held in Nashville, dedicated to the centenary of Tennessee becoming one of the states of the United States. The main pavilion of the exhibition was built in the form of a copy of the famous ancient Greek Parthenon (one of Nashville’s popular nicknames is the “Athens of the South”) and, after reconstruction carried out in the twenties of the XX century, remains one of the most famous sights of the city today.
During World War I, Tennessee-born US Army Sergeant Alvin York became famous on the battlefields of distant Europe. A group of thirteen soldiers, led by York, managed to capture the German stronghold, while they destroyed thirty-two machine guns, killed twenty-eight enemy troops and captured another one hundred and thirty-two (the Americans lost six people killed). For his feat, Alvin York was awarded the Medal of Honor – the highest military award of the United States of America.
In the twenties of the last century in Tennessee, the extremely popular American musical style “country” was born. And now the state hosts the largest country music festivals, gathering tens of thousands of fans, and Nashville is known as the “Music City”.
