El condado de Dunn es un condado del estado estadounidense de Dakota del Norte . Según el censo de Estados Unidos de 2010 , la población era de 3.536. [1] Su asiento de condado es Manning . [2]

Historia [ editar ]

El 9 de marzo de 1883, la legislatura del Territorio de Dakota autorizó la creación de un nuevo condado, utilizando el territorio dividido del condado de Howard (que ahora está extinto). La organización del condado no se efectuó en ese momento, pero el condado no se adjuntó a otro condado para fines judiciales.

Los límites del condado fueron alterados en 1883, y el 3 de noviembre de 1896 la legislatura ordenó la disolución de Dunn, con su territorio asignado al condado de Stark . Sin embargo, la corte suprema del estado anuló la ley de la legislatura el 24 de mayo de 1901; en efecto, recreando el condado de Dunn. El condado todavía no estaba asignado a otro condado. Esto se resolvió el 10 de marzo de 1903, cuando el condado fue asignado al condado de Stark con fines judiciales.

El 13 de marzo de 1903, la legislatura volvió a votar para disolver el condado de Dunn, pero nuevamente (durante la sesión de 1905) la corte suprema del estado anuló la ley. El condado de Dunn continuó vinculado al condado de Stark. Sin embargo, el 18 de enero de 1908, se efectuó la organización del condado y Dunn se convirtió en un condado independiente. En el proceso, Dunn ganó una extensión de tierra previamente sin asignar del condado de Stark, ampliando su límite. La configuración así creada se ha mantenido hasta el presente. El condado recibió su nombre de John Piatt Dunn, [3] que abrió la primera farmacia en Dakota del Norte y que fue un líder cívico y comercial durante la historia temprana de Bismarck . [4] [5]

Geografía [ editar ]

El río Missouri fluye hacia el sureste a lo largo del límite noreste del condado de Dunn, y el río Little Missouri fluye hacia el este a través de la parte central del condado, hasta su confluencia con el Missouri en la parte noreste del condado. El terreno del condado consiste en colinas semiáridas, que están marcadas en el norte y el este por barrancos y drenajes hacia los valles fluviales. [6] El terreno se inclina hacia el este y el norte; su punto más alto es una colina en la esquina suroeste, a 2.625 '(800m) ASL. [7] El condado tiene un área total de 2.082 millas cuadradas (5.390 km 2 ), de las cuales 2.008 millas cuadradas (5.200 km 2 ) son tierra y 74 millas cuadradas (190 km 2).) (3,5%) es agua. [8] Es el quinto condado más grande de Dakota del Norte por área total.

El condado de Dunn es algo inusual entre los condados del oeste de Dakota del Norte. Como otros condados de la región, tiene áreas de praderas y tierras baldías. Ubicadas en la parte noroeste del condado se encuentran las Montañas Killdeer , que se describen con mayor precisión como colinas. Estas colinas ayudan a crear un miniecosistema en el borde sur de las tierras baldías de Little Missouri, que tiene una mayor abundancia de bosques de álamo temblón y vida silvestre que la que se encuentra típicamente en el suroeste de Dakota del Norte. El punto más alto de las montañas Killdeer, y el punto más alto en el condado de Dunn, está a 3281 pies sobre el nivel del mar. [9]

La esquina noroeste del condado, al noroeste de las montañas Killdeer, presenta muchas millas cuadradas de bosque de robles, principalmente en las laderas de las colinas orientadas al norte. El roble y el álamo temblón , aunque son nativos de Dakota del Norte, son escasos en el oeste de Dakota del Norte, siendo el condado de Dunn una excepción notable.
