🎭 Culture
Before it became South Carolina, the land was known as Carolana—a Latinized name given by King Charles I in 1629.
The original charter was later invalidated and then reissued to King Charles II’s supporters, and the colony split into North and South Carolina in 1729.
📰 Economy
South Carolina hit a record 2,464,262 employed in July with nearly 5,000 more jobs than in June and over 32,000 added compared to July last year—though the unemployment rate edged up slightly to 4.2% as 6,833 more people joined the labor force.
Local figures from York and Lancaster Counties showed small increases in unemployment—while workforce events in September are set to offer additional job training and support.
