Yellowstone County, located in the southeastern part of the great state of Montana, was established on February 26, 1883, named after the Yellowstone River that runs through it. The river, in turn, got its name from the Minnetaree Indian name "Mi tse a-da-zi," which means "Yellow Stone River." The region was initially inhabited by Native American tribes including the Crow, Sioux, and Cheyenne Nations.

The creation of Yellowstone National Park in 1872 increased interest in the area, and the Northern Pacific Railway decided to build a track across Montana, which eventually led to the growth of settlements in the region. Billings, the largest city and county seat of Yellowstone County, was founded in 1882 and named after Northern Pacific Railway President Frederick H. Billings.

Yellowstone County played a prominent role in the history of the American West. The Battle of the Little Bighorn, also known as Custer's Last Stand, took place nearby on June 25, 1876. The battle was between the federal government's 7th Cavalry, led by Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer, and several tribes of Native Americans led by Sitting Bull, Crazy Horse, and Gall.

Agriculture, trade, and transportation have been mainstays of Yellowstone County's economy throughout its history. The presence of abundant natural resources, such as coal and oil, has also contributed to the area's growth.

Fun fact: One of Yellowstone County's major attractions is the Rimrocks, which are sandstone cliffs formed over 80 million years ago. These beautiful cliff formations are popular with rock climbers, hikers, and nature enthusiasts, providing a stunning backdrop for the city of Billings.
