Billings’ culture and heritage contain the indigenous people’s
culture as well, and they are called the Crow. There were about 10,603 to
12,000 tribe members living in the Yellowstone and Big Horn counties. They
search throughout the Great Plain for the tobacco plant, and it’s found in the
east side of the Big Horn Mountains. It is also included in the Louisiana
Purchase land, and then Louis Clark explored the land. Soon, White people
settled the land.
The oil industry in the city is sprawling as well. Since
Alberta in Canada is near Billings, the pipelines were built in Billings and oil
is being given out through the nation’s market. Employment is being reduced due
to efficient technology in oil production. The oil production's value is higher
than copper mining.
