Columbia is a city located primarily in Monroe County, Illinois and partially in St. Clair County, Illinois. The population was 7,922 at the 2000 census. The city was founded in 1820; its name 'Columbia', from Christopher Columbus, is a poetical name for the United States.
The first white settlers who came to the area of Columbia, Illinois, in the mid-1600s were French.
In the mid-1700s, the British took over the territory until the Revolutionary War forced them out of the area. The colonial American settlers soon arrived and established the first permanent settlements in the area of Columbia, Fort Whiteside and Fort Piggott. Both forts were made out of log cabins and were used to protect against Indian raids.
In 1820 Columbia was plotted out as a town and built on bluffs 500 feet above sea level to protect against the flooding of the Mississippi River.
