Quick geography quiz: Of the states with directions in their names which is the furthest North, South, East and West?

North Dakota, South Carolina, no East, West Virginia

 

[DanOregon]

The answer is
NORTH: North Dakota
SOUTH: South Carolina
EAST: North Carolina
WEST: (tie) North and South Dakota (on same longitude)

But I'm guessing North Carolina is the easternmost.

I completely misinterpreted your question. My bad.

Jeopardy had a good question the other night: Which state named after a European monarch is the furthest West?

Louisiana?

I learned all my geography because we had this place mat that was a map of the united states. It was something to do while I wasn't eating my vegetables.

 

[DanOregon]

yep - I guessed West Virginia.

Good thing she's got her mother's looks because she's got your ... maybe Uma should study with her...

 

[zeke12]

yep - I guessed West Virginia.

I swear, I think that's a Trivial Pursuit card.

I never learned the state capitals in school. It's totally embarrassing. It was one of my new year's resolutions to (finally) learn them all. I'm not quite there, but almost.

And that's why my kid knows all the presidents. My wife grabbed some place mat with all their pictures, not giving it any more thought than it was the first thing available, and before we knew it we had a three-year-old who was correcting me on who came first, Rutherford B. Hayes or Benjamin Harrison.

We drive past the "highest elevation" sign in Florida every year and laugh. 345 feet. I have piles of socks bigger than that.

 

[finishthehat]

Sorry for the delay; yeah, it's Florida.
