USA

To begin with I am going to share with you 5 "fun facts" about the USA.


  1. The center of the U.S. is in the town of Castle Rock, South Dakota.
  2. Bagdad, California once had no rain for 2 years!
  3. Montana has 3 times more cattle than people.
  4. The smallest state has the longest name!
  5. In Nebraska, you can still see the tracks of wagons over 100 years ago!
...Here are some serious facts as well:

  1. The United States of America (commonly called the United States, the U.S., the USAAmerica, and the States) is a federal constitutional republic consisting of fifty states and a federal district.
  2. The country is situated mostly in central North America, where its forty-eight contiguous states and Washington, D.C., the capital district, lie between the Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, bordered by Canada to the north and Mexico to the south.
  3. MOTTO: In God We Trust  (official)  E Pluribus Unum  (traditional)
  4. The capital is called Washington D.C, and is located in the district of Columbia.
  5. The country also possesses several territories in the Pacific and Caribbean. At 3.79 million square miles (9.83 million km2) and with over 314 million people, the United States is the third- or fourth-largest country by total area, and the third-largest by both land area and population.
