At 3.79 million square miles (9.83 million km2) and approximately 315 million people, the United States
is the third largest country by land area and population. With fifty
states (48 contiguous) and a special district, the United States is an
extremely diverse country in both geography and climate.
Below we celebrate the beautiful natural landscapes of this diverse
country. One photograph for every state. These are by no means, intended
to be wholly ‘representative’ of each state, just a simple list to
appreciate the natural beauty of one of the largest countries in the
world :)
