Miami-Dade County is located in the southeastern part of the U.S. state of Flor The county seat is Miami, the core of the nation's ninth largest and world's 34th largest metropolitan area with a 2020 population of 6.138 million people. It is Florida's third largest county in terms of land area, with 1,946 square miles (5,040 km²) The county is heavily Hispanic, and was the most populous majority-Hispanic county in the nation as of 2020. The earliest evidence of Native American settlement in the Miami region came from about 12,000 years ago. The first inhabitants settled on the banks of the Miami River, with the main villages on the northern banks.
The Tequesta people, who controlled much of southeastern Florida, are credited with making the Miami Circle. People came from the Bahamas to South Florida and the Keys to hunt for treasure from the ships that ran aground on the treacherous Great Florida Reef. The area was affected by the Second Seminole War, during which Major William S. Harney led several raids against the Indians. At the end of the war, a few of the soldiers stayed to fight in the Third Seminole war, which was not as destructive as the second, but it slowed the settlement of the southeast Florida area. In 1844, Miami became the county seat, and the county was named after Major Francis Dade, a soldier killed in what is now what has been called the Second Dade War.
