Cheyenne is the capital of the U.S. state of Wyoming and the county seat of Laramie County. The population was 65,132 at the 2020 census, making it the largest city in the state.

First platted by Americans in 1867 as the site of a railroad crossing and named for the Cheyenne Native Americans. Within several months of its plotting four thousand people had moved there. It became territorial capital in 1869 and remained state capital upon statehood in 1890.
