Fort Smith, located on the Arkansas-Oklahoma border, is a city rich in frontier history and cultural heritage. Originally established as a military post in 1817, the city played a crucial role in maintaining law and order in the American West. Fort Smith served as a gateway to the frontier and was home to the famous "Hanging Judge" Isaac C. Parker's federal court from 1875 to 1896.
Today, the city preserves its historical significance through various cultural institutions and historic sites, including the Fort Smith National Historic Site. The city's cultural landscape reflects both its military past and its development as a key transportation and commercial hub along the Arkansas River. Fort Smith's heritage is deeply connected to Native American history, particularly the Trail of Tears, making it an important location for understanding 19th-century American history.
