More unique than I expected!

Also I think that the time should be reduced to 3 Minutes as you can practically type all the states.

Cool quiz! What is the difference according to the source between Europeans and white Americans in this context?

Europeans directly came from Europe. White Americans already lived in the USA/13C/Canada... and moved to another part of the country.

What is the source for this? Idaho had earlier white settlements - Cataldo mission, for one.

That seems to have been established by Native Americans - see the description.

But places like Fort Hall seem like they should count, was held by the original founder from 1834-37, which should satisfy the 2 year. requirement.
