Wake County is located in the heart of North Carolina, with the state capital, Raleigh, as its county seat. Established in 1771, Wake County was named after Margaret Wake Tryon, the wife of William Tryon, who was the governor of North Carolina from 1765 to 1771. The county was formed from parts of Cumberland, Orange, and Johnston Counties, the latter of which also has a county seat named in Governor Tryon's honor, Smithfield.

Wake County played an influential role during the American Revolutionary War as a center for militia activity. In 1792, Raleigh was founded to serve as North Carolina's capital and was strategically located at the center of the state for better accessibility for citizens. The city was named after Sir Walter Raleigh, an English explorer and writer who established a short-lived settlement - the "Lost Colony" - on Roanoke Island in 1584.

Throughout the 19th century, Wake County was primarily an agricultural region, with farmers taking advantage of the area's fertile soil. The county saw significant growth during the 20th century, fueled by the establishment of several prestigious educational institutions and technology companies, such as North Carolina State University, Duke University, and the Research Triangle Park (RTP), one of the largest research parks in the world.

Today, Wake County is the second most populous county in North Carolina and is known for its robust economy, high quality of life, prominent research and educational institutions, and a mix of urban and rural attractions.

Fun Fact: Wake County is home to the annual North Carolina State Fair, which began in 1853 and draws more than a million visitors each year. The event showcases North Carolina's agriculture, arts, and industry through various exhibits, entertainment, and competitions, making it one of the largest and most popular state fairs in the United States.
