I apologize if you notice any mistakes, just go to 50states.com and find the information yourself if you'd like. Now, for a little something extra, I've included a map below for a reference.
Just so everyone knows, the United States also owns several territories, some of which being Guam, Puerto Rico, the US Virgin Islands, and the Northern Mariana Islands. There are several other "unorganized" territories, as Wikipedia puts it, as well as the four listed above. In the past few years, they actually been considering making Puerto Rico a state, but obviously, that hasn't quite happened yet.
Well, I hope you all enjoyed my post for this week, See Ya!
