}}Steele County is a county in the U.S. state of North Dakota. As of the 2010 United States Census, the population was 1,975.[1] Its county seat since 1919 is Finley.[2]

History

The Dakota Territory legislature created the county on 2 June 1883, with territories partitioned from Griggs and Traill counties. It was not organized at that time, but was attached to Traill for administrative and judicial purposes. It was named for businessman Edward H. Steele, who had pushed for its creation.

On 13 July 1883 the county organization was effected and Steele County was detached from Traill County; Sherbrooke, North Dakota was chosen as the county seat. In 1897 the town of Finley was founded, and by 1919 its growth had eclipsed Sherbrooke to the point that the county seat was transferred to Finley.[3] The county's boundaries have been unchanged since its creation.

Geography

The Sheyenne River flows southward near and into the county's west boundary line. The Goose River flows southeastward through the NE part of the county. The county terrain consists of rolling hills, dotted with lakes and ponds. The area is devoted to agriculture.[4] The terrain slopes to the south and east; its highest point is near its NW corner, at 1,562' (464m) ASL.[5] The county has a total area of {{convert|715|sqmi}}, of which {{convert|712|sqmi}} is land and {{convert|3.2|sqmi}} (0.5%) is water.[6]
