Hay! im writing a a paper about The Yellowstone National Park I need some facts pl ∵

I would suggest doing some research on Yellowstone National Park but here are some facts that you asked for:

History of the Park:

Yellowstone National Park was established on March 1st, 1872 by Congress and was signed into law by 18th U.S. President Ulysses S. Grant. It's believed to be the first national park established in the world. Before being created, the location of Yellowstone National Park was explored by Ferdinand V. Hayden with government sponsorship.

Facts:

The park is known for its wildlife and its geysers, such as Old Faithful geyser, one of its most popular geysers to visit. It spans an area of 3,468.4 sq mi (8,983 sq km) and is comprised of many different lakes, canyons, rivers, and mountain ranges.

Yellowstone Lake is one of the largest high-elevation lakes in North America and is centered over the Yellowstone Caldera, which is the largest supervolcano on the continent. (If erupted, it could spew ash for thousands of miles across North America and could damage buildings, destroy crops, and could cause many more severe effects.)

Some geologic facts are that Yellowstone is an active part of a hotspot that has continued to move northeast over time. and has the largest volcanic system in the entire continent. Yellowstone is also an active area for earthquakes, it experiences thousands of small unnoticeable earthquakes in a year. However, some earthquakes in the park have had atleast a magnitude of 6 or higher in the past.
