The article discusses how Latter-day Saints "helped further define, explore, test, and reveal some fundamental American political beliefs." It explains some of the motivations for statehood and how they relate to American ideas about democracy, and it notes how Utah featured in political disagreements about popular sovereignty, slavery, women's suffrage, the separation between church and state, and political parties. The article tracks Utah's attempts to become a state and concludes with the first state law passed in Utah.
