The capital of the state is Lansing and its most populous city is Detroit. Detroit was and is one of the most prominent manufacturers of automobiles in the world. Detroit is the home of the famous rap musicians Eminem and Fifty Cent as well as rock musician Kid Rock.
The great lakes that border Michigan are Lake Superior, Lake Michigan, Lake Huron, and Lake Erie. The first settlers were the Native American cultures of the Chippewa, Potawatomi, and Anishnabe.
