In 1819, as part of the Louisiana Purchase, Arkansas became a separate territory, and later on June 15, 1836, it achieved statehood as the 25th state. It was the ninth state to secede from the union and join the Confederate States of America. Today, Arkansas is the 29th largest by area and the 33rd most populous of the 50 United States.
Arkansas is located in the southern region of the United States. Its neighbors are Missouri to the north, Tennessee and Mississippi to the east, Louisiana to the south, Texas to the southwest, and Oklahoma to the west. The state’s diverse geography ranges from the mountainous regions of the Ozark and the Ouachita Mountains, which make up the U.S. Interior Highlands, to the densely forested land in the south known as the Arkansas Timberlands, to the eastern lowlands along the Mississippi River and the Arkansas Delta. The capital city, Little Rock, is positioned in the central portion of the state. The largest city in the state’s eastern part is Jonesboro. The largest city in the state’s southeastern part is Pine Bluff.
Arkansas is currently nicknamed The Natural State or The Land of Opportunity. It is also well-known for its former nickname The Bear State. The state tree is the Pine, the state bird is the Mockingbird and the state flower is the Apple Blossom. The state motto is ‘The People Rule’ (Latin: Regnat populous).

The state of Washington was named after George Washington, making it the only state in the United States to be named after a president. It was inaugurated into statehood in 1889. Blessed with a great coastal location, and brilliant harbors, Washington occupies one of the leading positions trading with Canada, Alaska, and Countries of the Pacific Rim. The beautiful Mount Rainier ascends above Seattle and is the highest peak in the continental United States.
The St. Helens Mountain is another landmark in Washington. It erupted in 1980, and was recorded as the most deadly and economically destructive volcanic event in the history of the United States. It is often referred to as the Evergreen State, and is the country’s foremost producer of apples and is the home of the reputable coffee chain “Starbucks.” Some popular people from Washington are Bill Gates, Bing Cosby, and Jimi Hendrix.
