Yellowstone is a national park in Montana, Idaho and Wyoming in the USA. The area was established as a national park in 1872 and it was the first natural area in the world to be given this status. The term "National Park" was not used about the area in 1872, but the purpose of the creation of the park was the same as national parks has today. The national park was created when President Ulysses, S. Grant signed the Act of Dedication. The park cover an area over 8000 square km and native Americans have lived in the area for at least 11,000 years.
