التاريخ
The European-American city of Muscatine began as a trading post founded by representatives of Colonel George Davenport in 1833. Muscatine was incorporated as Bloomington in 1839; the name was changed to reduce mail delivery confusion, as there were several Bloomingtons in the Midwest. Before that, Muscatine had also been known as "Newburg".
The name Muscatine is believed by some to have been derived from the Mascouten native American tribe. The Algonquian-speaking Mascoutin were driven out of Michigan in around 1642 by French and Natives, and they were believed to have been absorbed into the Meskwaki (Fox) and Sac tribes by the early 18th century. In 1819 Muscatine Island was known as Mascoutin Island. An alternative theory is that the name is derived from a Siouan-language term meaning "Fire Island". Major William Williams, who was visiting when the town changed its name in 1849, wrote in his journal: "Muscatine in English is Fire Island," in his list of the meanings of Sioux Indian names.
بيت الصداقة الأمريكية الصينية
في 15 فبراير 2012, Vice President of the People's Republic of China شي جنپنگ visited Muscatine. He had previously visited in 1985 as part of a Chinese delegation to learn about American agriculture, so Muscatine was again on his agenda when he toured the USA in 2012 before becoming president.
وفي 18 سبتمبر 2015، قامت شركة صينية بشراء المنزل الذي أقام فيه شي جنپنگ في زيارته الأولى للولايات المتحدة (1985)، وقامت بتحويله إلى مقصد سياحي وأسمته بيت الصداقة الأمريكية-الصينية Sino-U.S. Friendship House .
