==History==

The earliest inhabitants of Linn County, prior to Anglo settlement, were the [[Sac and Fox Nation|Sac and Fox]] tribes. Relations were described by 20th century historians as amicable. Native Americans provided food and furs to whites in exchange for merchandise.<ref>{{cite book |last1=Brewer |first1=Luther |last2=Barthinus |first2=Wick |title=History of Linn County Iowa |date=1911 |publisher=The Pioneer Publishing Company |location=Chicago |pages=10–12 |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=SYEUAAAAYAAJ&pg=PA11}}</ref>

Linn County was created as a named but unorganized area on December 21, 1837, as a part of [[Wisconsin Territory]]. It became part of Iowa Territory on July 4, 1838, when the territory was organized.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://publications.newberry.org/ahcbp/documents/WI_Individual_County_Chronologies.htm|title=WI: Individual County Chronologies|website=publications.newberry.org|access-date=September 28, 2016|archive-date=April 14, 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170414132220/http://publications.newberry.org/ahcbp/documents/WI_Individual_County_Chronologies.htm|url-status=dead}}</ref> Linn County was organized by the first legislative assembly of the [[Iowa|Iowa Territory]] on January 15, 1839. A site was selected for its first county seat along [[Indian Creek (Cedar Rapids, Iowa)|Indian Creek]], and was named [[Marion, IA|Marion]], after the [[American Revolution|Revolutionary War]] general [[Francis Marion]]. As early as 1855, there were debates over moving the county seat to the fast-growing [[Cedar Rapids]], southwest of Marion, but it was not until November 6, 1919, that there were enough votes in favor of the move (9,960 to 4,823).<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.co.linn.ia.us/content.asp?Page_Id=459&Dept_Id=1|title=History of Linn County|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090503105836/http://www.co.linn.ia.us/content.asp?Page_Id=459&Dept_Id=1|archive-date=May 3, 2009}}</ref> The first rail line was built through Cedar Rapids in 1859, and made the town (and the county) a major commercial hub in eastern Iowa.

Many areas of the county were damaged by the [[Iowa flood of 2008|flooding]] of [[Cedar River (Iowa)|Cedar River]] in June 2008, and again during the [[August 2020 Midwest derecho]].

While Iowa shifted from competitive to firmly Republican during the [[Donald Trump]] era in the mid-to-late 2010s, Linn County remained as one of the state's few Democratic strongholds. The County last voted for a Republican for president in 1984 when [[Ronald Reagan]] won a landslide re-election. In every presidential election since 1984, the Democratic candidate won Linn County by at least 9 percent.
