It is pretty unique, and kind of fascinating.  They came into being as a state on the "anti-slavery" side, but also as a "whites only" state, literally excluding black settlers and requiring existing black settlers to leave.  I listened to a podcast about it a few months back.
Confess to not being aware of (or remembering) that.
I wish I could remember the podcast.  If I do, I'll send it your way.  It was fascinating to listen to.
