United States
The United States spans a continental breadth that makes generalization difficult: redwood forests and desert plains, Appalachian hollows and Great Plains wind, Gulf humidity and Arctic tundra in Alaska. Its culture is loud, contradictory, and perpetually in argument with itself — a quality visible in everything from its cuisine to its politics.
About United States
Overview
The contiguous United States borders Canada to the north and Mexico to the south, with the Atlantic and Pacific flanking it on either coasts. Washington D.C. is the federal capital; English is the dominant language, though Spanish is widely spoken. The currency is the US dollar. Fifty states, plus non-contiguous Alaska and Hawaii, form a federation of distinct regional identities.
