If by any chance you know anybody moving to the USA (*coughs quietly*), it may be handy to have a clickable map that tells you which state is which. Of course, it may be of no interest or value whatsoever, but at least you will be able to sound intelligent when asked to locate one of the 50 states.
Either one of these websites will do it for you:
2. General Information on just about everything.
Little quiz:
1. Which was the 17th State to enter the Union?
2. Which is the 'Buckeye' State?
3. Which State is represented by the cardinal (bird)?
4. Which State name is derived from an Iroquoian word meaning 'great river'?
5. Which State has the scarlet carnation as its 'special' flower?
