The truth is that every single state has lots of great things about them, but states are big and people visit one town and think the whole state is like that one town 😂
Exactly right and people always think that the Civil War was about slavery but it wasn’t at all. It was about the federal government and the north telling the south how to run their business! ! We Southerners are feisty and Americans are pretty feisty in general. Robert E Lee said in the paper his freshman year at West Point that he thought slavery was disgusting but it would’ve taken act of God to get rid of it. He fought for the confederacy because he lived in Virginia!!
I’ve heard so many rumors about him that are so untrue. People said that he hung black women and raped them and all that stuff which is simply not true. Robert E Lee had one boss and that was his wife and they had seven kids. The man didn’t drink or party like the other soldiers did. General Grant said Robert E Lee was so good that he could run both sides and he could still win. That’s quite the compliment!!
It was all about economics and the Civil War was about the north trying to force the south to industrialize. I think the south would’ve done so overtime if they weren’t forced but the problem was is that the European on demand on cotton and tobacco it was so much that it really prevented the south from doing anything else.
When I was forward another hundred years and what happened?? ALL Of those northern businesses that were so big in the 1800s and early 1900s all moved down south because it’s cheaper to live here!’
It’s environmentally healthier and clean to live down here and it’s a lot cheaper! The weather is much much warmer and people don’t have to deal with trying to get out in 3 feet of snow to go to work every week or two. The taxes are a lot cheaper and gas is a lot cheaper here. All of those business up in Wisconsin and New York and Michigan went bye-bye and they all moved south, that Civil War had an interesting impact on America because flash forward 100 years and so many of those businesses that were forcing the south to do what they were doing ended up packing up and moving south!’
Unrelated question: Is that picture of you? lol But, you're right. lol
@@coltjames9159 yeah, my picture is a picture of me 😂 I’d say that’s a weird question, but people do that a lot I guess haha
@@horrordudealma Lol. I only ask because people do use other people's pictures. Dang, you look good. :o
@@coltjames9159 haha thanks man, I try. No rest days 😂👌🏼
This guy has a fun take on the states. I loved his statement on Oregan. All those handlebar moustaches are amazing....not just anyone can be so dedicated to the stache. Americans (me included) get defensive about their own states & regions, but laugh at others. I am Italian/Irish, raised in Jersey, near NYC, and now in Philadelphia, I - no surprise - can have an attitude at times.
Oregan? lol
Thanks guys! You find great videos and I get to watch them with you.
Oregon, well, pretty much just the Portland Metro area, is the home of the hipsters! I wouldn't say it's all "lumberjack," just magnificent beards and flannel, plus ear gages, piercings, tatoos, dyed hair, edgy haircuts, knit hats (beanies) and fedoras! 😛(Plus veganism, gluten-free, organic food and outdoorsy-ness) Portland is also well known for its wealth of craft breweries, independent coffee roasters and food carts. Then further south of Portland in the heart of the Willamette Valley, we're blessed with sprawling vineyards and wine country (our wineries have won a few "best in the world" titles!) and also hazelnut orchards! Fun fact, Oregon produces 99% of the hazelnuts in the US, and it is our state nut! We also product a lot of fruit, especially in the town Hood River, from apples and pears to blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, strawberries and marionberries (a type of unique cross between blackberries, raspberries and dewberries that was created at Oregon State University).
The funny thing is that what most people immediately think about Oregon - green, lush, rainy, full of forests and waterfalls and hipsters - is actually only true for the western third of the state, which is the Willamette Valley. The Willamette river runs down the top half of the valley, which is cradled between the Costal Range in the west and the higher Cascades in the east, which keeps all the moisture coming off the Pacific Ocean in the valley and traps it as rain. Because of this, the eastern 2/3 of Oregon is actually high desert! And while covered in forests and mountains, it is much much drier, and also conservative. The Willamette Valley contains the majority of our state's population, and is very liberal, whereas the rest is very sparsely populated, full of farms and small, conservative communities. There's actually, funnily enough, a movement out there of some people wanting to secede from Oregon and become part of conservative Idaho (to escape the overwhelmingly liberal government in Portland), but seeing that Idaho would have to pay for all the reworking of government for who knows how many million square miles of land, I doubt it would happen any time soon 😂
It is really interesting just how different the two different sides of Oregon are though! But if there's one thing that we all have in common, it's how much we love our forests and our nature. Almost our entire coastline is publicly owned, and open to all. And although we produce a lot of timber (there's a reason why people see us as lumberjacks! lol) but we ALWAYS replant, and we are super big on recycling! In Oregon we have 4 R's, instead of 3: Reduce, Reuse, Recycle and Replant!
Kansas always gets a bad rap from those not from here. Yes, although it is mostly flat it is NOT all flat. I live in the Flint Hills of Kansas. And we have so much beauty in this state. From the beautiful waterfalls to the gorgeous sunsets. We have Rock City, Monument Rock, Konza Prairie, Castle Rock, and so much more. Yes, it does sound like all Rock, but it isn't. It's the "Home of the Range". The Sunflower State, the Wheat State, and the Maize (Corn) State. Kansas is the Breadbasket of America!
as someone from idaho... highly accurate.
also we have a small part of yellostone.
As someone from Idaho I can confirm that we have many secrets
*Eats potato*
as a Pennsylvanian i def think he should have mentioned our chocolate
As a Michigander, he got this wrong. Yeah, Detroit and Flint are struggling, but the rest of the state is a gorgeous natural paradise.
Mackinaw island is a gem.
And your state is governed by the wicked witch of the midwest
Way wrong. Literally berated and breezed over us.
I live on the Ohio/Michigan border, and even though I enjoy living in Ohio, I like to visit/vacation in Michigan. Not only is Michigan surrounded by the Great Lakes, it has many, many lakes within the state. I always find something new when I travel there.
I want to visit the UP
Lmao “Branson MO, the Las Vegas for old people” why is that so accurate?
I just think it's the clean version. Vegas is "Sin City" and Branson is like its wholesome and responsible big brother 😆
and Silver Dollar City, we love that place!
I've been to Branson many times. It's a great place for families. Lots of shows, IE, Dolly Parton's Stampede. A really good Titanic Museum, owned by John Joslyn (who headed a 1987 expedition to Titanic). Real artifacts & reproductions like the Grand Staircase. The building looks like the Titanic. Not much worry about what you did in Branson staying in Branson either.
He also didn't mention Lake of the Ozarks, 54,000 acres (220 km2) and 1,150 miles (1,850 km) of shoreline. You really need to have access to a boat there though. The bigger the better. ;0)
Branson is a great place for families with its attractions and shows. I live about an hour and a half from Branson. We love the Christmas parade, the lights, and plays at Silver Dollar City.
No mention of the wonderful, beautiful, numerous caves to explore in Missouri? They definitely are a must see in my opinion.
NY is so much more then the city. You have the Adirondacks which is I believe is one the largest state parks in the country. It's a combination of public and private lands mixed. There is also the Catskill Mountains, Finger Lakes, Niagara Falls, Letchworth. There is some amazing parks but none that fall under the National Parks like Yellowstone.
Don't forget Niagara Falls 😁 Apple orchards everywhere near the lake and her heavy agricultural footprint!
We vacationed in Lake George in 2015. We were supposed to go to the balloon festival but unfortunately it was too windy.
This guy's view of the US is a typical Cali view...missed so much.
I completely agree!
I mean, he got NH right..
He has no clue about American history
How can he tell about every state when he hasn’t been to every state?
@@crazydaisyj steryotypes
I remember this. I know he’s trying to be funny but he literally just regurgitates all the states’ stereotypes, which is a bit disappointing since he actually researches his international videos. As he grew up in Illinois and Minnesota, of course he insults neighbor Iowa (“flat and boring”) but surprisingly he’s fairly nice to Wisconsin (“best looking chubby people”). And poor Delaware! (“I think they have a cardboard box factory.”) 😬😂
Same here he couldn't look up that Arizona was part of new mexico for 264 years before becoming separate
Don’t mention the ignorant comments about Michigan. Very irritating.
Lol, if he's mean to WI, his family won't ever be able to get back to their summer vacay home 🤣
I know he is being funny and I love your channel but this was one of the most disrespectful and untruthful representation of the states not you guys but this guy sorry but true
Greetings from Arizona! I am a member of the largest Native American tribe, the Navajos. I watch your videos and Enjoy it very much. ❤
i'm from one of the smallest. Chikasha/Chickasaw. 😀
I love ❤️ the Native Indian nation. This land rightfully belonged to them and still does. I find it absolutely appalling what the govt did to that beautiful Indian nation. God will not hold the white man blameless for his crimes against humanity. Men, women and children and their animals massacred time after time after time. After that, their land taken from them. My heart ❤️ breaks for what they’ve gone thru and r still suffering. God will make the wrongs right again. Btw, I am a white women. May God bless the Native Indian nation always. ❤️🙏
I found a really Cool Navajo TH-cam Channel recently!
Im in Indiana…There is more of Cherokee, Sioux influence around i think….but even then, they’re often people distant from the culture.
The Navajo seem to keep the culture alive well out west.
When you Visit some towns in the Appalachians… you’ll see generic Cherokee shops in areas, ran by non-natives, that just seem cheesy…it’s unfortunate.
@@michelesmall3858 Absolutely nothing that we did wrong. Literally every race on this planet has displaced a native population in some way (even Africans and Asians), the only difference with us is we didn’t kill them off like everyone else does. We gave them reservations and gave them rights, that’s unheard of with anyone else in history to do. Quit the guilt, that’s ridiculous. If you really want to know about how natives were usually displaced all around the world, just look at the Spanish who literally killed them all off, Mexicans are a byproduct of that. Northern Europeans who settled in America treated them more fair than anyone else in history had to other native populations, we were by far the most caring to them. No reason for your skewed weird self hating guilt. They also were killing themselves off constantly with wars and tribalism. Do you also forget we’re native as well? We’re native to Europe and also been displaced several times in history but no one talks about that, just how it worked.
I'm from the 4 corners. I love Navajo Nation. Its absolutely stunning out there❤
I always try to explain to non US travelers that each state in itself is like it’s own small country with it’s own unique cultural experiences and government which works in tandem with the larger federal government.
For sure, they may not technically be separate countries but there is a lot of similarity when compared to how countries vary in the EU. States might not be as culturally distinct as the EU countries are from each other but, they are still quite distinct and especially when you talk about the larger regions. Like the difference between south and north on the east coast for example. Even states next to each other can have pretty big differences and within the states there is a large variety as well. It's just such a massive country lol
As a New Yorker who doesn’t live in NYC, it’s frustrating when everyone focuses only on the city. I live upstate NY in the Catskill Mountains. I have multiple farms as neighbors, and no cell service at my house. Also, NIAGARA FALLS! I lived in Wyoming for a couple of years, and the official state sport really is rodeo.
I know what you mean. I lived in Vermont for many years and I loved to look at New York across the lake. I lived in Burlington so I could see the NY mountains every day. I loved going to visit because it has such natural beauty like Vermont. They should really just make "Upstate New York" it's own state because it's so different. i never liked the city but I love the state itself.
@@christinaFaith84 I love Burlington!! It's a great town.
Bruh I swear some people think the US is only LA and NYC
as someone from NJ - thats the NY we love.. LI and NYC are miserable people, we like you guys up state :)
@@PastPositive most foreigners think in provincial terms and can only conceive of the U.S. as similar to their own country. This is how you get foreigners coming here and thinking they can see the Grand Canyon and Empire State Building in the same weekend.
They’re typically laughed at but leave never having experienced the vastness and diversity of the country because they. We’re only in one city for a week before they went home.
This is also where you get provincial comments like “American beer/bread/cheese/etc.” sucks. They only know about big international brands with cheap products and they think that’s all that is available in the US because their country does only have one of each thing. It’s sad they often spit venom at America but are ignorant and will never the country or it’s people 😂
California… the state where the American dream hasn’t existed in years. So sad what it’s become lately
California is expensive and has problems, but what state doesn’t have problems?
Plenty of red states like Arkansas, West Virginia, Oklahoma have bad drug and poverty issues (poverty leading to crime) including in remote, non-urban towns
All states have their own issues
@@coyotelong4349 Those states don't hold a candle to California. 39% of all welfare cases in the entire US and more drugs then can be imagined are here in California for your enjoyment. That said I still live here, but I own property in The SF Bay Area. It's good to be king!
@@coyotelong4349 “but all states have issues” is a horrible argument. Why are you pretending hundreds of thousands of people a year are LEAVING California? Calexit is no secret and I’m just one of many
@@johnbernstein7887 I simple search on any browser will show this isn't true...
@@dabreal82 Yes it is. California population growth is in huge decline, hundreds of thousands are leaving. It’s a mess.
I know the guy in the video is doing this for fun, but really his take on so many of our states is so wrong! He makes California sound like the best state ever, which it most certainly is NOT! Many of our smaller states that he insulted or basically blew off have so much more to offer than CA ever will. So I guess what I'm saying is don't take what he says as facts - he has no idea what he's talking about!
He did New Mexico wrong since Az was part of NM for 264 years! Also NM has a deeper culture and more history vs AZ
"Nevada is like California's drunk girlfriend". I would love to see a license plate of Nevada with that on there.
I lol'd at that!
Challenge accepted.
jovet.net/files/images/NVdrunkGF.png
The fact is, California is desperately looking for any girlfriend. Heck...Venezuela would do.
Unfortunately, California has invaded Nevada. So, no longer the drunk girlfriend, but the bitter girlfriend trying to get away from California...
@@crazyhumpy well historically they were both Mexican territories and European Spanish speaking. Maybe we should blame the European country of Spain because everyone there speaks their language now as prior. 1476 anyone,...?
Wyoming: the scariest state if youre in the know. Home to a super volcano capable of an extinction level event which is also crazy overdue to erupt. 😱
I "survive" In California. There's a reason why a lot of folks refer to it as "The Land of Fruits and Nuts".
Double meaning...know what I mean?
My mom used to say "If God was going to give California an enema, he'd stick it in SF." And they'd probably like it, too.
@@ronjones-6977 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I'm dyin' over here!
WOW - he had like nothing to say about the beautiful state of Montana!! Yes we have many Indian Reservations - but we have immense wilderness, lots of gorgeous parks, fabulous fishing, Grizzly bears and great hunting for elk and deer ( Our deer are like three times the size of deer in other states). We are famous for huckleberry foods like jelly and so on, we are also famous for our skiing. We have the beautiful Yogo sapphires here and you can go gold panning.
Aren't you also the Big Sky Country?
@@crackersmom2679
yes
Montana is beautiful!! Never ever been there but I’ve seen pictures and it’s just gorgeous, I was a Navy brat and then a US Marine Corps wife for 10 years and then dad worked for the veterans affairs hospital and we moved around every two or three years. I’m in Virginia where I was born but I’ve lived everywhere and they only stayed up north was Pennsylvania and I could only tolerate it up there for two years and I had to move back home to Virginia and live with mom. Too COLD!!! I’m from the south also and people in the south are super friendly and feisty and the people in the north just aren’t the same. I think the people in the southeast area have more in common with the people in the Midwest and then also in the deep south. We’re like a combination of both.
@@montrelouisebohon-harris7023 I am a Southerner who moved to the N.West and when I went back down home it was way too hot and way too busy and no longer seems like the south -its a mish mesh of ppl from all over and that is fine its just not home any more. MT. is the best place on earth.
You can also find artifacts everywhere.
He is great, he missed something pretty significant about Maine...Home of Stephen King. Maybe he is just too young or not a fan.
Could be. Though uncle Stevie moved to Florida permanently a year or so ago
Another thing he forgot to mention about NH, Vermont and Maine..they are some of the prettiest states in the country..especially in the fall.
Please do not take this guy seriously. Just sayin……..
Arizona is not just deserts 🏜. Northern Arizona is 🏕🏞🏔 mountains and forest. We get snow. There are lots of Native American tribes. There are 22 tribes are in ARIZONA. I work for one of them.
We are also have western towns and my town has the world's oldest rodeo. Also movies were filmed in my town.
My husband and I almost moved to Arizona back in 2002. I really wanted to live there after visiting during a business trip. I took my husband back to see what I had experienced and he loved it too. At that time housing was more than affordable, cost of living was pretty good, and it would have been a great place to live for my health. But my husband took a different job in our state near the beach after I got us all set to move there. I sold our house, got us both jobs there and enrolled our daughter in school in Scottsdale. I think he got cold feet and didn't want to move that far from his family but I was so ready to leave and make a new life there. I'm still disappointed we never made it there. I just love Arizona.
I live in prescott/chino valley/paulden/prescott valley/humbolt/dewey area in arizona... Arizona is the only state in the US where u can travel 100miles in each direction and have a different climate... Different weather and landscape... Prescott was actually the first territorial capital of Arizona before Phoenix became our capital...
@@Meriale46 If ur frm california glad u never stayed here in az .. californians moving here is whats ruining our state... Stay out.
@@chapo0815 I love ❤️ the tri city's. Love our weather. We have it all. Hot, snow, rain, cooler weather, warm. Love that we can go from pines to juniper to cactus.
Ya’ll need to ban Pillows from the state
I thought he was going to cover Michigan, not just Detroit. He didn’t even come close to mentioning the Great Lakes or the Upper/Lower Peninsula
Yup. People see Michigan and think of Detroit and how bad it is. They don’t even know how much it’s improved. The video made me so mad. We offer so much more than Detroit
Yes the great lakes!!! The song the mighty Fitzgerald!!
@@Michganfanatic you know it’s just for laughs and it should not be taken seriously. Besides there are a lot of things that are special to every individual state that it will take forever to go over. No need to be mad about it. Like how I’m from California and the summary he said about it it’s just not only those things we have like Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Death Valley and more that he didn’t mention, but other than that I don’t mind, I got a laugh from it.
I didn't like it. He left out 95% of what each state is known for.
I grew up in San Francisco....it was beautiful. Now it's hypodermic needles and human feces everywhere. Car break ins in broad daylight and a revolving door for criminals. Even when they get arrested they're out before the day is over and do the same thing the next day. They say almost 50% of San Francisco residents have been robbed.....sad. I miss the old San Francisco..... 😪
That was my moms favorite city in the world (were from Houston) work sent her a lot. They moved their conferences to New Orleans or Atlanta because of the crime in SF
Welcome to the United States. These problems are not exclusive to San Francisco or California. The only time I was ever a victim of crime was in Augusta, Georgia, and I have lived plenty of other places since then.
That is unfortunate.
It's pretty bad with homelessness and drugs...depends where go though..but it is still a beautiful and unique city and such a vibe their. No big city is perfect, but I do love SF.
Good ol' liberal politics
You should hear the different accents around the USA
Have you seen the Wired video about American accents? Very thorough and fascinating.
@@AmandaKMason I don't think I did. Do you have a link to it?
Here in New Mexico it's very windy in the spring and we have a saying that it's windy because Arizona blows and Texas sucks.
West Virginia is the Mountain State. The only state completely inside the Appalachian Mountains. Home to the New River which is actually the oldest river in the US and the 3rd oldest river in the world. We are a very rural state end none of our "big cities" are actually big enough population wise to be cities, not even our capital of Charleston. We are also the only state to be created entirely fron another state.
Aren’t the Appalachian (or Smoky Mountains) like the oldest or 2nd oldest mountain range in the world. I know when we went to the Smoky Mountains someone said that. You can correct me if I’m mistaken about them being part of the Appalachians.
@@G-grandma_Army They are the 3rd oldest mountain range in the world. Also during prehistoric times when there was only 1 continent, Pangea, they were a part of the same mountain range as the Scottish Highlands (The Middle Pangean Mountain Range).
I believe i did white water rafting on that river….Was there a gorge ithat was part of olympic kayaking….?
West Virginia is also home of the “MothMan” lol!!
The river i rafted in West Virginia was Gorgeous….But i have to say to say the terrain of the state is a little ominous at times….I felt like i always at the bottom of a mountain ridge…Sun set early because because the mountains on each side were blocking the horizon.
Kind of felt like being at the bottom a wedge …Beautiful…but Different…and the hills were green with Black Coal colored rocks
@@AxelFoleyDetroitLions yes. The New River Gorge. The bridge is the 3rd largest single arch bridge in the world and the area was just made a national park. The mountains can be very intimidating if you're not use to them. Lol
@@marycarter2469 yep! That’s the one! I did a guided raft! Amazing!!!
Ill never forget the guide explaining that even though the river flows in a certain direction….If you fall out into the water….There are Underground Rivers that have chiseled there way in the opposite direction Into underground water taverns Below the river bottoms.
You can be sucked into an underground river never to be seen again!
The only problem with Yellow Stone is if that Super Caldera ever wakes up, all of North America is super toast.
And, it could cause global devastation
It's a reasonable summary of the stereotypes and false histories of the various states held by descendants of recent immigrants - say, those who have arrived since 1850 - but much is wrong or distorted.
It bugs me that he mentioned the Wright brothers first public flight in North Carolina, but not that the Wright brothers lived in Dayton, Ohio where they actually invented the airplane.
They were from Ohio, but much of the inventing itself was done in North Carolina with the assistance of local talent.
But North Carolina certainly deserved more mention: the second largest banking center in the United States, lots of technology invented in the Research Triangle Park with the help of several major universities in the area, and so forth.
Alan Light, I don’t know what planet you’ve been living on, but the only reason the Wright Brothers came to SC was because the winds were stronger and for the first public flight, they wanted the plane to get up higher than it had on Huffman Prairie located at Wright-Patterson AFB.
Virtually ALL the development and inventing took place in DAYTON OHIO!
@@kathleenmenker3853 - first, SC is not the same as NC. Second, yes, that was the primary reason why the Wright brothers came to North Carolina - but once there they hired local talent. For a project like that it's impossible to think of everything in the lab, much of the inventing has to be done in the field as experimental results dictate. Thus, while much of the planning was done in Ohio many of the refinements and adjustments that were necessary to making the plane work were done in North Carolina with the assistance of local talent.
Alan Light, the SC was a typo.
The brothers had various comsultants, some of them possibly from NC. They were consultants to the inventors, who did the bulk of the work.
The plane had flown off the ground numerous times before the trip to Kitty Hawk. My grandfather was a young teenager in the early days of invention. He and his buddies used to hike for several miles out to Huffman prairie, sit on the hillside and watch the Wright Bros testing. The plane rose up and flew, but not high enough for a public demonstration. They knew the winds of Kitty Hawk were better because they’d been there before with a glider.
There were some facts about each state and a LOT of opinion.
Ohio, specifically Dayton, was the home of the Wright Brothers. They are credited for building the first airplane. They took their planes to Kittyhawk, N. Carolina to test because of the steady high wind conditions there.
do you know why the wind always blows in North Carolina?
because South Carolina sucks.
OMG, Ohio trying to be important! And to think I was born there.😁
@@brettsterrett1909 Ohio was the birthplace of 8(i think) US presidents and the first man to walk on the moon which ties in nicely with the Wright brothers.,, and that's about it.
@@NotaVampyre111 The only three places that make me want to visit Ohio is Dietsch's Brothers ice cream of Findlay, Kewpee Burger of Lima, and Cedar Point of Sandusky in that order. I'll give you Wapakonetta with Neil Armstrong, but even the Wright Brothers bicycle shop is now in Michigan thanks to Henry Ford!
@@brettsterrett1909 No biggie. We left Dayton when I was 15, I;'ve not been bacj except for a couple of visits in over 50 years.
New Mexico is also home 2 National Nuclear Labs. Los Alamos is home to the Manhattan Project , and we're known as The Atomic City. The first atomic bomb was detonated here, at Trinity Site, in southern NM, at Alamogordo.
It's so sad that too many people died because of the atom bombs that were dropped on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, but it brought an end to WWII in the Pacific Arena. Now, Japan is one of the US's strongest allies..
Hello from Colorado. Like a lot of states in the US there is a lot to Colorado. It's where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. Besides the plains and the mountains, there is the desert southwest in the Four Corners where four states meet. We have over 300 days of sunshine a year (this catches visitors off-guard in the winter time because they look out the window and see a clear, sunny day not realizing it's only 15 degrees Fahrenheit!). We are the Centennial State since we became a state in 1876 -- had a huge celebration in 1976 when the US turned 200 and Colorado turned 100. There are areas in southern Colorado (like La Junta) that were originally colonized by the Spanish and later Mexicans before people from the eastern US moved out here. Denver, the Mile High City, is actually in a bowl and you go up hill in all four directions when leaving Denver. The lowest point in Colorado is higher than the highest point in Pennsylvania. We used to be a lot more like Wyoming with horses and ranches but we've been invaded by folks from California in the 1980s and lately by hipsters since weed was legalized. Please visit and spend your money here, but please don't move here. There are too many people here already, so we don't need any more (personally, I wanted fences to be installed in 1975).
Not wrong about Oregon...mostly in the bigger cities though. Rural Oregon is still pretty cool 😎!!!
Only grievance I got with this feller was callin’ Tennessee “Capitol of the Appalachians.”
Growin’ up in West Virginia, the only state to be entirely encompassed by the said Appalachians, I believe that title belongs to us.
Another thing about WV is our coal mining! Sadly, the government is closing down our mines and buying coal from China, where they don't care about how much pollution they put out in the world! A lot of wonderful people have lost their jobs due to this! 😒
Nah, as someone from Kentucky the title goes to Tennessee.
@@coltsforsuperbowllvii6827 Hello from Tennessee.
I second the WV title
@@coltsforsuperbowllvii6827 I agree TN got the best part of the Appalachians. Beautiful
Please pray for us Floridians. Potentially historic Hurricane Ian is expected to slam into the state ne t week (even though the storm is currently in its infancy as a tropical storm with 40 mph winds and a central pressure of 1005 millibars, but at least one model projects it will reach Category 5 on the Saffer-Simpson Scale. Damage from these storms could be catastrophic.
Love watching you guys lean some American history.
I just saw that. 😢 I lived in Citrus County for about 4 years. We just BARELY escaped a direct hit from Irma…no power or stores or anything for a week and then some. No water, no gas, etc. It was horrible. Thankfully Irma made a very last second turn inland just before it made it to us. Like it was literally within hours of impending doom. If Ian stays on path it looks like they are in for another hit. I’m glad I’m not there. Stay safe!!
@@Badgerhollis thankfully I’m in Leon county, but some models (like the GFS) had it making landfall in Saint Marks, while the Navy model had it going to Port Zt. Joe, only 20 miles or so from Mexico Beach where Micheal hit in 2018.
Your New Zealand Family 🇳🇿 when y'all come to The United States 🇺🇸 please come visit my home state of Tennessee. There are many great places in Tennessee that y'all would like. These cities are great places to visit while in Tennessee, Knoxville, Nashville, Sevierville, Pigeon Forge, Gatlinburg, Vonore, Whitwell, Chattanooga (my hometown), Collegedale, Singal Mountain, Lookout Mountain, and the other cities in Hamilton County Tennessee. (Lookout Mountain is spilt between the states of Tennessee and Georgia.)
Civil War started in South Carolina
Thank YOU!
Ummm. I think you might want to be more selective about the source of info. This person is actually making fun of our states. Kinda insulting.
Vermont was once it's own country too. It was an independent nation during the American Revolution, and declared war on the British independently from the Continental Congress.
Indiana really isn't known for much.
We have corn, soybeans, and Interstate 69
In Texas we have 3 I-69’s since they couldn’t decide the route. Still isn’t connected to Indiana yet
@@cjthompson420 Everything is bigger in Texas
If you dig down in Florida, you don’t hit water. You hit coral “rock.” You have to drill through it to get to any water.
It's true about the basements though, high water table.
@@lilyz2156 It really depends. I get your point. I live in South Florida, and we’re like 5 feet above sea level, I think. But you have to go through coral rock to hit the water.
You can’t do it with a shovel.
@@Ira88881 True, limestone, but the basement statement is true, very few basements in FL due to highwater table. There was one individual in my neighborhood that had a recent built basement. It lasted a few months, then rainy season started and it completely flooded. It was filled with concrete afterwards. Not the sharpest pencil....
That dude was jacked up on something.
Texas, and Tennessee go back to the Alamo. True friends.
Similar to Texas, Ohio is also very into football having the Browns, Buckeyes, and Bengals.
I do have to clarify that Bluegrass music is from KY not TN. TN is the home of country music. I'm from KY and I love traveling to TN.
Very cool, some funny. I was born in Colorado, grew up in Iowa, was in the Air Force in New Mexico and Texas, and now I live in North Carolina. Love ya NZ family, stay safe.
Whats your favorite state ?
@Jerry Hosford Born on a Southern CA USAFB. After dad did his thing we moved back to NC (the QC) now live in Western NC in a “small town” lol. But it was quite a culture shock to me after living in CLT for at least 55 yrs. ✌🏻
You guys should react to the "Accent Tour of the US" video series! I think you guys would get a kick out of hearing all of the different accents, as well as the deep history behind them! th-cam.com/video/H1KP4ztKK0A/w-d-xo.html
Including the Gullah, which were briefly mentioned in this video.
The 4 part Erik Singer series on the Wired TH-cam channel is superb. It takes awhile to watch the whole series, but it is fascinating.
So when I love you guys' videos but I noticed you guys' reactions when they talked about Texas you should really watch a video on the history of Texas how it was its own country you should also watch a video on the Alamo that'll tell you everything you need to know about Texas
He forgot to mention California is home to half of all the homeless people in the country.
I was born and raised in California and used to be very proud to say so. I can tell this video was made a couple of years ago, because CA has gone seriously downhill since then. People are leaving it in droves, including most of my family. Have now lived in Oregon for 14 years and, he was pretty accurate about it. But, it's following in CA's footsteps, so now we are planning to relocate to Wyoming or Montana. Both seriously beautiful states with much better leadership!
Everyone from California that I know is moving/has moved to Montana. You should try the Dakotas
Yes, they’re all coming to Houston and causing a high amount of accidents from speeding in the rain. Y’all, there’s a reason everyone’s going 40mph MAX in the thunderstorms 😭
@@kingcarlos7048 My husband and I literally talked about South Dakota today! We plan to check it out. Our daughter and her family are leaving OR and moving to Missouri so we were thinking SD would be closer to our grandkids. Either that or Eastern Wyoming. My husband is a hunter. lol
They are leaving the high prices caused by their policies and will vote to push for those same policies to be pushed in the new state that they move to .
Alabama has some amazing natural scenery. We have extensive woodlands, rivers, lakes, caves, wildlife, and several beaches (the bottom of our state is on the Gulf Coast). Huntsville, Alabama is home to the Space And Rocket Center where many things essential to NASA are on display (Moon Landers, launch rockets, and such). I live in the northeastern part near the Tennessee and Georgia state lines, and there are many breathtakingly beautiful local areas...gorges, waterfalls, hiking trails, I could go on and on. Not far from my town (25-ish km away) is the place (then called Willstown, now named Fort Payne) where a Native American named Sequoyah (also known as George Gist/Guest) completed his independent creation of the Cherokee syllabary in 1821, thus making it possible for the Cherokee language to be written and read. Sequoyah Caverns is a local landmark where it's said he spent much time during this period of his life. My 4th grade class went there for our annual field trip back in the 80's. Another nearby cave, also in Fort Payne, is Manitou Cave. It's a moderately sized system, and its' walls still bear the drawings and writings of the Native Americans who once populated the area. It contains absolutely stunning natural features, as well. Fort Payne is the home of the Alabama (the country music super group) Fan Club And Museum, too, as it's where the members of the band are from. Fort Payne was also once the sock manufacturing capital of the world apparently. Wishing everyone peace, love, and good happiness stuff from the mountains of northeastern Alabama 🤘
💕 ALABAMA
ROLL TIDE
I love Mobile. Born in Huntsville.
Muscle Shoals ,Alabama home to Fame Recording Studio where The Rolling Stones,Aretha Franklin and others have recorded,Ivy Green in Tuscumbia home of Helen Keller. You can't forget Tuscaloosa home of the Alabama Crimson Tide and so much more. ROLL TIDE!!!
Tuscaloosa here, can confirm.
Sweet Home Alabama!
I suppose for comedy, this fellow is 'okay'. For actual learning, a letter from each state (from a lifelong resident), would be much more informative about the state and it's people. It seemed to me that the whole video was much too brief and did not truly encapsulate the best parts of each state. I love that your family is so interested in the USA! Even better than a letter, do yourselves a favor and come to the USA and stay a couple of weeks or so in each state and get to know the people; I think you will be very glad you did! Having you come to the USA would be wonderful for us here, as well, as you seem to be 'great folks'! We would be interested in even hosting your family for a week or so in order that you could follow this plan!
Every state in the USA is beautiful and has good things to offer. I lived in CA for 25 years loved every second of it. I am now in my home state of Indiana, because I am more liberal it is hard to live here most of the time.
Because Indiana is smarter. If the california policies actually was effective, you wouldnt have left.
@@gggamer3851 you can’t assume you know why someone left a state they lived in…
@@robinbrown7953 sure I can. Last California I met on my home area went to prison. They seemed shocked car theft is punished here. If a liberal left California, its either to avoid costs, or to push their ideals in a different state. If someone's gonna talk politics in a comment section, someones gonna call them out.
@@gggamer3851 I left because of a divorce had nothing to do with the state it was personal and emotional issues. Big mistake don't make big moves when you are emotional.
@@lizregan1949Divorce sucks. I have a Prenuptial Agreement in mine. Helps preserve a happy marriage without encouraging divorce.
So far I have like most of your videos with the exception of this one. This is in no way a representation of the United States. It seemed to be more for laughs than anything else. But spent most the time putting us down. I live in Michigan and have lived in a lot of other places too. Michigan is a gorgeous state filled with some of the best scenery you will experience. Our great lakes are beautiful and if you are ever here during Christmas it's gorgeous. I have lived in Arkansas, Alabama, Wisconsin, Oklahoma and Michigan. Each state is very unique. We all have bad things abt us just like any place in the world but we also have lots and lots of beautiful places and ppl.
As a Michigan native, I'm kind of sad that he limited that state to what happened to Detroit. As a whole, the state is beautiful. And my home town, Grand Rapids, is actually kind of a "happening" place.
He's Garbage!! Michigan is beautiful!!!
As an American hes about 30 percent correct! Best advice I can give guest to our country is stay out of 90 percent of large cities, especially San Fran, la, Chicago, New York, these are very dangerous or degenerate cities not suitable for families!
NY NY here. Yes correct. I used to travel to these other large cities. Used to being out on street and on transit at almost all hours. Now not possible.

As a person living in Kansas for almost 30 years, can tell that it is NOT the flattest state in the Union. Have been all across this beautiful state and seen things that native Kansans DO NOT know about unless they are from the immediate local area. Yep - -Kansas CAN be quite flat. Have been to parts of the state where you can see 100-miles in ALL directions and, IF you stand on a beer can, you can see another 100-miles. MOST of your mid-western states are like that though.
Arikaree Breaks in northwestern Kansas, considered a "mini-Grand Canyon"
Flint Hills & Smoky Hills of the central part of the state
Glacial Hills in northeast portion of the state
Gypsum Hills in south-central part of the state
Monument Rocks (Chalk Pyramids) & Castle Rock/Badlands Region in western part of the state
Big Basin area in southwestern part of the state
Also, Kansas has the Kansas Cosmosphere, which houses lots of artifacts from the USA space agency and is supposed to have one of the largest collections of Soviet-era space relics outside of Russia.
Strataca - rather large underground salt mine and also used to house important documents
Also, the Santa Fe Trail, Oregon Trail, parts of the Mormon Trail, Parts of the Pony Express Trail, and Historic Route 66 pass through the state giving you different variations of scenery
Cheyenne Bottoms, the largest wetlands in the country, are in the center part of the state AND Quivera National Wildlife Refuge is supposed to be the largest saltmarsh in the country and is not far from Cheyenne Bottoms. BOTH areas are great for BIRDWATCHING.
Lots of Native American history throughout the state. Also, plenty of Pre-Civil War/Civil War related locations to visit.
Kansas was also home to some of the meanest/baddest/roughest COWTOWNS during the 1800s starting the, but not limited to: Baxter Springs, CAldwell, Wichita, Newton, Ellsworth, Abilene, Hays, Dodge City. Also, plenty of historic forts/military history throughout the state.
Home of Amelia Earhart and President Eisenhower and others.
The GEOGRAPHIC CENTER of the Contiguous 48-States is located in north-central part of the state (got to travel to South Dakota to visit the site for ALL 50-states)
The LARGEST BALL OF TWINE is also located in the state
Loved his New Zealand post. "You don't need Lord of the Rings, New Zealand is a true life fantasy". Families like you contribute to that.👍
The guy had some facts and some false about some of the States
I know I mention Texas a lot but when our state is mentioned i can't help but to
talk about it so with that Texas does not envy any state we have our own way
of doing things and it's is in fact the original state of cowboys Californians don't
know nothing about us Texans.
He was right about Minnesota. There are a lot of Nordic peoples here. And we do have a funny accent (& I'm proud of it :-) ) Love all our lakes!
th-cam.com/video/7ZC3NUdjtug/w-d-xo.html
Wisconsin does have more lakes though. Go Pack Go! ;)
@@stich21 That is still incorrect. There's no real official logistical classification as to what a lake is so MN and WI have different definitions of what classify a lake as. MN says it has to be 10 acres of surface area. WI doesn't really have any. If we applied MN's classification to WI, WI would have about 6,000 lakes. If you just looked at bodies of water, MN has about 124,000 to WI's 82,000. So... 🤷♀️ Either way, AK kicks boths states asses with over 3 million.
This guy needs to update his videos and get the facts correct.
I've lived all over the US and can say this guy has a very interesting (insert southern accent) (if you know you know) point of view of the states especially California 🤔
Ok, I'm from Missouri, "Gateway to the West." Lewis and Clark started from here. Home of Samuel Clemens (Mark Twain). Love our sports teams. It's the cave state. Home of The Notorious Jesse James. Has the tallest man made monument (The Gateway Arch). And so much more. Hope you get to visit us! Paul St Louis.
I was born and raised in California and still reside there.. This state is very different than it used to be.
I can agree with that, it’s gone downhill fast
It’s a total mess now .. democrat policies
Always wanted to visit! Today...not so much.
@@Sword_of_justice103 Its been Democrat since FDR hasn't it?
@@Sword_of_justice103 No a lot is also Republican policies. We have a Republican in Stockton who does nothing, but look good in a suit.
oh boy You got some explaining to do, the confused look on Atlanta's face is too sweet.
He missed so many different facts about many states. Like Virginia is the home state of the rocket boys. The ones who changed space flight. Then Pennsylvania home of steel in Pittsburgh.
I think West Virginia is, actually. I remember that from the film October Sky
@@coyotelong4349 yes it was supposed to say West Virginia. Just I type faster then my phone can keep up sometimes.
he missed a lot of facts about all the states. The video wasn't supposed to be so in depth but to hit on something interesting enough in a fun way to warrant further research.
As one who was born and raised in Kansas I must correct this guy that Kansas is actually the 7th flattest state in the US. Flattest states are:
1. Florida
2. Illinois
3. North Dakota
4. Louisiana
5. Minnesota
6. Delaware
7. Kansas
Also no portion of the film the Wizard of Oz was filmed in Kansas. However, a significant portion of the movie Looper was filmed there. As well as some parts of the movie Man of Steel
Im from Kentucky specifically Louisville where the giant baseball statue leaning on the buiding is. I can't tell you how many times we've taken a picture in front of it, but whenever we go downtown we always make sure, or at least always make sure that we pass it so my mom can take pictures😊
That guy is out of his mind. Oregon is depressed
Michigan is beautiful. Don't take this kid seriously. He doesn't know what he's talking about. I'm actually upset that he would say that about Michigan. 😠
Very frustrating and Ignorant comments by him. Absolutely ridiculous
If your going to play a video about the states that make the United States a joke, how about one with ACCURACY and not DEMEANING. I find this highly offensive and do not see anything HUMOROUS at all. This is the second such video I have seen like this and I am offended that you would even play it much less sit and giggle at it. After so many UNITED STATE citizens who live in these states have been so generous and sent your family gifts. I am deeply saddened by this.
How would you like New Zealand to be the butt of incorrect facts and jokes.
Remember...
Perception vs Reality in all matters of debate...
Zero information about Alabama 😂
It’s politically a mess, but the land and most of the people are wonderful. Southern hospitality is a real thing here. Everywhere you go people are going to wave at you and say hello, even while just driving around. We have mountains in the north, country side (lots of crops grown), the Mobile bay, and the white sand beaches of the gulf. Mobile, AL is very culturally diverse with a large refugee population and the birthplace of Mardi Gras! Hot air balloon festivals and the peanut capital of the world. 10/10 recommend visiting. Every state is so different, so when you do come, I highly recommend staying and seeing all the states!
I love your videos especially the ones where you explore cultures. Although I do not identify as native American I have family and friends who are part of the Navajo Nation. Citizens of the Navajo Nation also go by the name " The People" they're beautiful culture celebrates how connected we are to the Earth. And how we should show reference and respect for nature. A wonderful recipe to try would be Navajo tacos these are very different than Mexican tacos and to be authentic you should use ground mutton.
He missed a big one when he mentioned Delware. That is because Delaware is the most common state to incorporate in for both domestic and international corporations. More than 1.5 MILLION businesses have been incorporated in the state. The majority (66.8%) of the companies listed on the Fortune 500 call Delaware home, including Facebook, Yelp, and Wal-Mart. 93% percent of all U.S. initial public offerings in the calendar year 2021 were registered in Delaware.
Alaska has temps of like 80s in the summer. It’s like some people think once you go north of the us-Canada border it’s nothing but tundra lol
Alaska is absolutely beautiful! When I visited one year in early June, temperature got up to 98⁰ F. There was nothing cold about that! I would love to go back someday. Stunning beauty!
It was hotter this summer
We have lows of 80 in the summer so for us that’s cold. Plus I was in Alaska in august and it was 48 at night lol. Brrrr
I live in Ohio, and the guy missed the moon, by literally a summary & 200,000 miles, and maybe 7 blocks...(oh wait, that's a walk for me). Also where a vast majority of Sherman tanks where built...
Also fun fact: Remember learning how the US got involved in WW2 (without the lend-lease)? The largest part of USS Arizona is in Phoenix, her boathouse (for those not aware, that's where all the shrap--I mean life boats are stored/put).
Also fun fact for anyone into Naval history, or ww2 history as a whole: US South Dakota has a memorial in Sioux Falls, part of Mobile's skyline is the USS Alabama, and LA got shot at with a Japanese submarine during ww2, the only attack on the continental US of the war.
That was hilarious! Very tongue-in-cheek, for sure. But he's right about Minnesota. We're very Scandinavian here. My dad was full-blooded Norwegian and we can trace his family tree back into the 1700's in Norway. Mom was more of a Heinz-57 (she was from California), but we can trace her heritage back to the Catawba Indians in the 1600's. As for Idaho....lived there for awhile. One day I bought a bag of "Idaho potatoes" and just happened to notice the small print on the bag: Grown and packaged in California. LOL! I noticed some puzzled faces at the mention of Standing Rock in ND. Look it up. It was quite the Indians vs. Gov't ordeal that had the whole country riled up: Most of us supporting the Indians with cash and care-packages. Indians came from all over the country...and I think some even came from South America. Search "The Aztecs arrive at the North Dakota protests!" on Jezter49 channel here on TH-cam. Goosebumps!
ya i live in Oklahoma. tornadoes suck. hot and humid sucks. wind sucks. this place is literally trying to kill the people that inhabit it.
In all fairness, Delaware has more going for it than he said: the entire eastern side of the state is a string of white, sandy beaches. These tend to be less built-up than the beaches in Maryland or New Jersey, and Delaware has several quaint and pretty beach towns like Rehoboth Beach and Lewes. Similarly, Rhode Island has a nice beach vibe in places like Narragansett and cool historic cities like Newport. So don't sleep on the little states, they have some hidden treasures (and lots of good seafood).
Delaware is a small state but a good one - and perhaps most famous for its corporate law which has resulted in many large corporations having their legal headquarters there. Rhode Island has one great fact of history - that it was founded by people fleeing religious persecution in Massachusetts, and the circumstances surrounding that eventually led to the principle of religious freedom being propagated around the world.
As someone from NJ, the beaches in Delaware are so nice and Rehoboth Boardwalk is a great place to be. Much rather be in Delaware in the summer than down the shore
And Delaware has no sales tax.
I think this is why most people in America go on vacation in America. Even though there's a Walmart in your neighborhood, there is something cool about going to one in another state. Lol. Im in Georgia so I have the option of going to FL, AL, TN, NC and SC. Flagler Beach FL is about 8hrs drive south of me. Its very typical tropical with the whole beach life vibe. Or, I can drive about 6 hrs north to Pidgeon Forge TN (country singer Dolly Pardon's hometown). Here you have the whole Blue Ridge and Great Smokey Mountains. Cabins and bbq are a way of life here, and Main St in Pidgeon Forge has many many rides, shops, and odd attractions. Its very G-Rated fun for the whole family. However, twice per year Pidgeon Forge hosts the "Rod Run". This is when everyone and their brother who has hot rods, big dawg hogs, monster trucks, and the occasional Ferrari comes to town and re-coats the road with rubber. All the locals and visitors set up chairs and coolers on the sidewalk and watch. Even the cops will just sit there and watch all the burnouts. But if you make an illegal u-turn they will still give you a ticket. I know from personal experience. Good fun!! There are Rod Run videos on youtube.
Sigh - Again Michigan is defined by one city. There is much more to our state than that.
Since my best friend moved to Holland years ago, I first think of snow and Lake Michigan before Detroit honestly
@@CajunGators yeah unfortunately people see the stereotypes made by videos like these and roll with it. It’s very ignorant of him. I bet he hasn’t been to Detroit in a long time. People need to see how Detroit is recovering now.
OMG, people from Michigan are whiny. Your like the 100th person from Michigan complaining in this comment section, about this video.
@@emmywestbrook8563 And white women are so obnoxious. You’re whining about comments 🤡
@UCkYamsTzhag7K5cRV_Rh0sQ I don't think you understand the difference between being upset over a comment and making a remark based on an observation.
as a Utahan, yea most people here are Mormon, though they prefer being called member of the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints, or LDS, but it is an amazingly gorgeous place to be, there are a ton of mountains as well! I used to be a Mormon but I don't like the whole religion thing anymore really, but basically my whole family is, so I know a bit about it, (and no, Mormons don't have 5 wives, just 1, but god are large families common here)
As someone who grew up in Oregon and has lived most of my adult life in Washington, I can confirm that his descriptions are accurate.
Although, California shouldn't really be claiming Amazon. Amazon was founded in Seattle and (for now) is headquartered there.
As a MIT alumni, the snub wrt universities in Massachusetts was odd. Especially since he showed a still from Good Will Hunting ("gritty intellectual").
Agreed, as someone who is born and raised in Washington, its fairly accurate. Lumberjack state that transitioned to Nerds, Fortune 500 Companies, and Apples. Also people don't know, most of the state is desert land. Once you go past the mountain range, its dry.
Man, as an Oregonian, it's painfully true. Californians everywhere, send help. Lol
When they were talking about New Hampshire and Sam chimed in with " Apple cider donuts!" It made me cry because he remembered that fact about the Granite State
He didn't remember it, he read it. this was the worst one yet.
I swear, Newhampshireites are addicted to everything Apple 🍎😃
Atlanta made Apple Cider Donuts for an Atlanta's Kitchen episode.
And here we have our great natural monument, The Old Man of the Mountain. It's even on our state quarter. It's a natural granite formation...CRACK...crumble...
Oh, no...
Sadly, California's worst problems like: crime, unemployment and people with pretty bad mental health have gotten worse since after the start of the 1990s. I'm in Arizona and this State is the hottest.
As one of Wisconsin’s beautiful chubby people, honestly his critique of our state is spot on! The majority of residents are super friendly and do love to share stories! Preferably with a couple of cold beers around a fire pit!
Lived there for 10 yrs. He/you are right! Now that I'm on the east coast, VT people remind me of WI people
I live in Maine and this is how we are as well 😁. I will visit Wisconsin one day and enjoy one of those cold beers... maybe 2.
@@mars1072 One of the states I want to visit most is Maine! Maybe we should just trade places for a week! 😄 I feel like they’re probably actually pretty similar as far as people, environment, and climate goes!
Yes, Wisconsin is a lovely place to raise a family.
Not real accurate but funny
This guy is giving the bare basic facts (and false stereotypes and incorrect facts) of each state. If you’re basing your knowledge of each state off this guy’s video, you’d come off as very ignorant when you visit each state. Alabama was, for example, not where the Confederacy began. That would be South Carolina, which was the first southern state to secede
Tennessee is not only home to country music. It is home to a country music legend who has made herself very wealthy after growing up very poor which is Dolly Parton. Dolly Parton growing up was very poor and lived in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Dolly Parton helps to combat illiteracy in children and has started an organization called Imagination Library. This organization sends books to children who are signed up to her organization to help them to not be illiterate like her father was. If you want to know what her childhood was like listen to the songs called coat of many colors or the song Backwoods Barbie. Those two songs Dolly Parton wrote about her childhood plus she also has some movies that she did about her childhood as well called coat of many colors and coat of many colors Christmas.
I normaly love Geography Now. This is the one video of his that I was really disappointed in. (I had seen it when it first came out.) He really gives a very biased/narrow and not really fact-based view of a lot of the states. He should have titled this video " My narrow opinion of all the 50 states". It is very funny and entertaining, but I wouldn't rely on it as accurate. The Geography Guy is the best resource I think to learn about our individual states.
Describing Branson as “Las Vegas for old people” is so accurate 😂
Ok Massachusetts was pretty accurate and as a gritty intellectual I feel called out. 😂😂But seriously though, Idk how we didnt make the list for most historical states. Plymouth, Salem, Boston.. We basically started the American Revolution. The Plimouth colony has had more impact on modern US history than Jamestown VA. The Salem witch trials are iconic. Harvard is also the oldest college in the USA. 🤓
