Its capital is Boise
On March 4, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln signed an act creating Idaho Territory. Idaho was visited by Lewis and Clark in 1805. At that time, approximately 8,000 Native Americans lived in the region. Originally part of Oregon and Washington territories, fur trading and missionary work attracted the first settlers to the region. While thousands passed through Idaho during the California gold rush of 1849, few people settled there. When organized as a territory in 1863, the total population was under 17,000.
Idaho borders Washington, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Montana, Wyoming and the country of Canada. Idaho has a rugged landscape with some of the largest unspoiled natural areas in the country. Idaho is a Rocky Mountains state with exciting scenery and enormous natural resources. Idaho has towering, snow-capped mountain ranges, swirling white rapids, peaceful lakes and steep canyons. The churning waters of Snake River rush through Hells Canyon, which is deeper than the Grand Canyon. Shoshone Falls plunges down rugged cliffs from a height greater than that of Niagara Falls.
The major rivers in Idaho are the Snake River, the Clearwater River and the Salmon River.

Boise ...if you don't know the basics, then maybe you should either get off here and read a book, or use this wisely and Google Idaho and learn it properly. Coming here is cheating in my opinion.
I totally understand harder questions, if they've looked and can't find a clear answer, but this is rediculously easy to find.
oh, I hope you accepted the one that said Seattle. That would teach you.
