Franchising law involves helping new business owners evaluate franchising opportunities, and assist in the purchase and operation of business franchises -- an alternative to starting a new, independent business from scratch. Franchising allows businesses owners to reduce their investment risk by associating with an established company, but may also require business owners to relinquish significant control over their business.
Mongo is an unincorporated village in Springfield Township, LaGrange County, Indiana. The name Mongo derives from the early settlers' name for the area: Mongoquinong. Although An Illustrated Historical Atlas of LaGrange County, Indiana (1874) translates this as "Big Squaw Village", is presently thought to be a corruption of the Miami-Illimois maankwahkionka, meaning "In the Loon Land".
