If California was a nation state it would rank 6th in the world https://www.weforum.org/agenda/2016/07/american-state-bigger...

The media and Hollywood create a pretty weird perception of California, the climate, geography and economy is very varied.

I thought the reason Hollywood was in California is because of the wide range of climates and shooting locations. Beach, farm, desert, and alpine, all just a few hours drive away. We're a bit short on tundra, though.

It was to escape Edison’s patents. No one was going to go all the way to CA to enforce them. Im sure Wikipedia has a page.
