The Territory of Alabama (sometimes Alabama Territory) was an organized incorporated territory of the United States. The Alabama Territory was carved from the Mississippi Territory on August 15, 1817; lasting until December 14, 1819, when it was admitted to the Union as the twenty second state. ==History== The Alabama Territory() was designated by two interdependent Acts of Congress on March 1 and 3, 1817,〔("An Act to enable the people of the western part of the Mississippi territory to form a constitution and state government, and for the admission of such state into the union, on an equal footing with the original state" )〕〔("An Act to establish a separate territorial government for the eastern part of the Mississippi territory" )〕 but it did not become effective until October 10, 1817.〔〔"Timeline 1811-1820" (events +sources); Algis Ratnikas; "Timelines of History"; 2007; webpage: (TimeLine Miss )〕〔"Statehood Dates"; 50states.com; 1998/2009; webpage: (50s-statehood )〕 The delay was due to a provision in the Congressional Act which stated that the act would take effect only if and when the western part of the Mississippi Territory were to form a state constitution and government on the road to statehood. A state constitution for Mississippi was adopted on August 15, 1817, elections were held in Sept., and the first legislative session convened in Oct.,〔 with the western part of the Mississippi Territory becoming the State of Mississippi on December 10, 1817.〔("Resolution for the admission of the State of Mississippi into the Union" )〕
