How many states are there in the USA

There are fifty states in the USA today. But at the beginning there were thirteen states. Among them were Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Rhode Island. These states were called the New England states. They were called New England because the first colonists who landed there were from England. Massachusetts, which capital is Boston, is a key state. It is a place of culture and learning. These states of New England are not suited for agriculture but it is a wooded district with a great many rivers and lakes.

The Middle Atlantic States stretch from New England southwest to Washington, District of Columbia. Washington is the capital of the country. The Middle Atlantic States are New Jersey, Pennsylvania and Delaware.

The advantage of this region is its position. It has important ports such as New York and Philadelphia. New York is the national leader in manufacturing, shipping industry, advertising and so on. Pennsylvania is also an important economic centre.

The South Atlantic States are Virginia and West Virginia, North Carolina and South Carolina, Georgia, Florida.

The Central South-East states are Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi and Alabama.

The American South-West consists of Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and Oklahoma. This is a land of prosperous towns, cowboys and Indians and in the western parts coyotes.
