Idaho and Nebraska need to trade names so we can have all the I states in a line. Iowa, Illinois, and Indiana are all in a row but Idaho just had to go out west all by itself.
Shout-out to one of the first owners of a printed Grasshopper Geography map! This canvas print hangs in the conference room of Headwaters Corporation, a natural resources management consulting firm in Nebraska, whose main focus is habitat restoration for endangered species. The picture is back from 2016, we just found it again :)
If you too have our map displayed on your wall, please contact us or just tag us under your social media posts, we are both so eager to see them! You can also send a picture directly to hello at grasshoppergeography dot com. Thank you for being awesome and for helping us make the world a better place with more colourful maps in it!
I have been desperately trying to find that tumblr US map with 60 states and the search engines refuse to comply because they're like "60 states is misinformation, there are 50." And now I want to strangle Google but I'm also concerned I hallucinated this hilarious map.
Because there are states in the South, there are states in East...but there are no states in the Southeast because there no such place in the US! I don't care what anyone said, not even National Geographics!
A few other things wrong here. Texas is it own country basically, if ask most Texans they'd agree. The Southwest is really only New Mexico and half of Arizona (I should know I was born and raised in Southern Arizona). But New Mexico and Arizona is also part of the West. Washington and Oregon should be considered the Pacific Northwest. The following states should not be part of the Midwest, we need to rename them the Middle they are: Oklahoma, Kansas, Nebraska, South and North Dakota. Virginia is not part of the South is part of East in my opinion. The South is from Kentucky down. I truthfully don't know about West Virginia it's a like Texas, but mostly cause it's not completely South or East in culture. That's how I'd break down the map the of America. It's not just about the states placement, but also their cultures, attitudes, lifestyles, ways of thinking, values and so on. You would never confuse a New Yorker (ever if they from Rochester and not NYC) from a Californian. Or someone from Louisiana from someone from Wyoming. Because of how different we all can be. I just think the map should reflect that a little bit, especially when it begins used to teach kids.
