Many of the state borders, where not a river or other natural feature, were based on latitude and longitude referenced to the location of the Naval Observatory (77° 33' west of Greenwich) in Washington D.C. Since the observatory was not directly on the longitude line, the borders are similarly offset but parallel to regular lat. and long. lines. Regarding the Indianapolis 500, it takes about 5 hours before and 4 hours after the race to get those 100s of thousands of people in and out of the venue. That place is huge. Like the video said, Vatican City will fit inside it PLUS a baseball stadium, football stadium, horse race track and still have room left. Four holes of the neighboring golf course are in the infield of the race track.
What I hope is accepted as constrictive criticism - When you comment on things of interest (which you should) pause the video. You are completely missing the ongoing commentary and thus miss items of interest. Second, your speaking over the commentary is a major distraction.

Sounds you need to check out Geography King. Lots of answers there!
I will check him out🙌
The flag at 1:30 is the confederate battle flag
you talk so much that you and us miss what is being said about the states
Yes I am sorry I am pausing next time when I am talking 🙏

Thanks mate🙌
I will take that in consideration for future videos
