[@markchristensen23]

So, since you were wrong about Texas being the largest, does that mean we have to unlike the video? 😂 I am kidding, of course. There are a lot of Americans who make that mistake, too. I live in Idaho, by the way.

[@annefox926]

That is why we are not fazed by driving long distances in a day. 7 to 8 hours is no big deal.

[@jeffewart4381]

This is why it seems like americans are not as well traveled as europeans. We can go from tropics to glaciers and never leave the states.

[@barcster2003]

Some states you don't even have to leave it. California for example has some insane swings on climate some in very short distances. Death valley (lowest often most hot point) to mount whiney (highest point where it often snows) is insanely close for how different they are.

[@enragedfurbie128]

Here in the Bay Area, I can go one way 45 min and see the Pacific Ocean at the beach, then drive 3 hours the other way and go skiing the same day. We don't really have to leave our country, let alone the state. It's easy to forget how big this country is when you grow up here.

[@CorgiDaddy2]

@@barcster2003 Even in Washington state, we can cross the Cascades for a desert and on the way back, do some skiing going back over the Cascades. Go a few hours out to the western part of the state and we have rainforests.

@ Very true. The largest source of freshwater on the planet and it has enough water to cover all of South America in 3 feet of water (it’s pretty deep).

Californian here. Our state is the most populated in The Union. Now having said that; I was flying a helicopter back across the Sierra Nevada mountains at night and for as far as I could see the ground was dense, dark forest except for one pinpoint of light on the ground. I had to look. I circled the light and found it was a porch light on a tiny house. Their nearest neighbor was was at least 10 miles away. I think I found Bigfoot's cabin.

Grew up in Florida. Lived on the east coast, on the gulf, and in the panhandle.

[@sues3218]

It is because our nation is so huge, with many subcultures within it and geogrpahical abundance, is why most Americans do not own a passport. We simply vacation within our own nation. There is so much diversity in our own back yards. I have lived in New Jersey, Florida, Colorado, and now reside in Idaho. My favorite place to live was definitely Colorado. I had a home at 9,500 feet in the rockies. I have been up to 14,000 foot summits (can only access them by road in the summer), and it was awesome! I LOVE the Rocky Mountains, they are HUGE! Colorado alone has different geography within it. If you ever get back to America again, try Colorado because its beauty is breathtaking. There is nothing like hearing the Elk bugling in person at Rocky Mountain National Park. Seeing Buffalo up close is cool too, of course they were behind a fence. You don't want to get to close to them without a fence. We went hiking all the time when we lived in Colorado. It was gorgeous. I am going to give your video a thumbs up even though you missed that Alaska is the biggest. If you ever get to visit Colorado, skip the Denver area because it has gone downhill. Find someplace to stay up in the mountains, and just travel around up there because it is huge. There are plenty of hotels across the Rocky Mountains. Rent a car, it is worth it. Get one with four wheel drive and you can go on trails. Just ask the locals in restaurants for the great places to visit. God Bless.

[@ZakhadWOW]

Jesus. Calm Down. Colorado has that mass of super high Rockies, but the Uintas and Wasatch in Utah are also stunning. Uintas are a unique feature in the western Hemisphere running west to east, but also a truly unique glaciated high point ridge. The Wasatch Range along the built up area is world-famous for its views, and has arguably the best powder skiing in the world.. YOu combine our Alpine mountains, withe the stunning desolate Great Basin Desert, and then the massive Red ROck parks and canyons of the south and we do beat Colorado for variety, if not scale.

For anybody wondering, it's around a 900 mi (1450 km) drive to get down there, and we then had to drive the return trip as well.

[@Amandaarford83]

Neighbor from Arkansas here and you can definitely drive forever and still be in Texas. It’s weird we have a town we share with y’all and we have west Memphis Arkansas then you cross the bridge and are in Memphis, TN. I guess we are just jealous of our bordering states 😂

[@BorderlandDisorder]

I'm from South Dakota. I live on the East River side and the reason it looks so dry is because most of our state is grassland, you will get tree hollows here and there near lakes or rivers and streams but mostly grassland. The further south west you go however, the dryer it gets, look up the Badlands in South Dakota, it legit looks like a different planet, if you want to take cool pictures just go during off season (Tourist Season is normally late spring May through Mid-Late Fall or End of September / Early October). Advice: Watch out for rattle snakes, black widows, bison, wolves, coyotes, cougars, big horn sheep, and mule deer. Depending on where you go just keep a watchful eye.

[@DamonNomad82]

I used to live in Rapid City as a small child. At the time, I thought it was called "Rabbit City", because our neighbors had a pet rabbit...

I'm from New Mexico, the 5th largest state. Known as The Land of Enchantment, we are in The Rocky Mountains. have a lot of desert, sunshine for about 310 days a year, and skies that are huge and blue. From the top of Sandia Peak in Albuquerque, you can see a panoramic view of 11,000 square miles on a clear day.

[@DamonNomad82]

The maps of states on this video aren't showing the vegetation. The "Plains States" (North and South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas and Oklahoma) are relatively green in their eastern halves and relatively dry in their western halves, but the "dry" areas aren't deserts, either. They're shortgrass prairies, "cattle country". The actual "desert" part of the US is in the Great Basin between the Rocky Mountains and the Sierra Nevada Mountains, in the states of Utah, Nevada and Arizona, along with parts of California, Colorado and New Mexico. The state I live in, Nebraska, has a very green and humid eastern third (which is where most of the people live), a center that consists of a fairly well-populated southern region watered by the Platte River and an almost empty northern region called "the Sandhills", which despite their name are actually grassy and mostly used for cattle ranching. The western third of the states is part of the "High Plains" region and is similar to the eastern parts of neighboring Wyoming and Colorado that are east of the Rocky Mountains.

You live in the Yuma area. Those measurements more or less check out on Google Earth. Yuma proper is actually about 10 miles closer to San Diego than it is to Phoenix as the crow flies, but the route to San Diego is a bit more circuitous going through the mountains, so the driving distance might sure enough be dead even both ways.

[@ordinarynocturne]

Hi from Pennsylvania! We're middling at size, but I think we're fifth or sixth in population. Even then I'm from the rural middle part of the state at the Appalachian foothills and it can be fairly empty here except for the occasional house or farm. I always thought Ireland (both NI and Republic) would be wonderful to visit. Maybe someday! And yeah, Alaska is bonkers in size. It's also the the northernmost, westernmost, and easternmost state. (It's Aleutian Islands cross the International Date Line.)

[@lalida6432]

Michigan is kind of a good size to compare. It takes about 5 hours to get to the UP from Detroit and I think it takes about the same amount of time to go up to Edinburgh from London. We do drive pretty fast in MI though, and I’m thinking not as fast in the UK, but I might be wrong.

[@SnowmanTF2]

It is easy to underestimate the size of Alaska, since most maps of all 50 states tend to draw it at a smaller scale, in the area inherently left over below California though Texas.

[@melissa502]

I think Alaska is 1/5 the size of the lower 48 states. And Michigan is big - but it's also surrounded by five "inland seas", also known as Great Lakes. I think the plan of the EU was to become rich as a US of Europe. But EU productivity is now twice as less as the US. It won't work because you're all sovereign nations with your own identities, whereas we are both individual states, but still one country at the same time.

[@SN-nu9kx]

Connecticut. It is only about a hour and fifteen drive north to south and about 2 hours east to west. A lot of CT is densely populated though. Its population is about half a million more than Nevada which you can fit 23 CT’s in that state.

[@infocenter5]

Fun fact: There are 40 million Americans with Irish heritage while there are 5 million people in Ireland lol, Yes we do it big over here haha

[@DamonNomad82]

While Michigan is larger than the UK in total surface area, that's a bit deceptive because a lot of that total area is made up of parts of Lake Michigan, Lake Superior, Lake Huron and Lake Erie, four of the five Great Lakes, which themselves are so huge that they're practically freshwater seas. If one only counts the LAND area of Michigan, it's about the size of England and Wales combined. The non-water part of the state is divided between the larger and much more populated Lower Peninsula (nicknamed "The Mitten" for its shape) and the heavily forested, much less populated Upper Peninsula. People from Lower Michigan call people from Upper Michigan "Yoopers", due to Upper Michigan being settled by Finnish immigrants a few generations ago, in whose accent the word "Upper" was pronounced as "Yooper". People from Upper Michigan call people from Lower Michigan "Trolls" due to the fact that there is a bridge linking the two peninsulas and Lower Michigan is "under the bridge" (like the troll from the fairy tale of "The Three Billy Goats Gruff") when viewed on a map.

[@rationalcynic8416]

As an American I have always found the idea of living in a country the size of just one of our states unnerving. Living in a country the size of Texas, California, or Alaska doesn't sound so bad but the idea of living in a country the size of Nebraska, Michigan, Ohio, or god forbid, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, or Maryland, sounds claustrophobic and unsettling. I imagine I would feel vulnerable, exposed, and isolated living in a country that small. It's irrational, I know.

I'm in Arkansas. We ain't huge, but we ain't dinky either. Our mountains (the Ozarks and the Ouachitas) aren't big and dramatic like the Rockies, but that's because they're ancient and worn down. We've got a little bit of almost everything: mountains, forests, farmland, rivers, lakes, Native American historic mounds, even swamps with alligators. If you draw a line from Texarkana in the southwest corner to West Memphis in the northeast corner, pretty much everything north and west of that line is mountains, and pretty much everything to the south and east is flat.

Hey Adam! Illinoisan here! It’s Ell-Ah-Noy! (Illinois) Do not, under any circumstances, EVER pronounce that S!

[@DamonNomad82]

Pronouncing the "S" in "Illinois" is the second most dangerous state mispronunciation, surpassed only by pronouncing the name of Arkansas how it's spelled instead of pronouncing it as "Arkansaw"...

[@ZakhadWOW]

Damn French name!

[@clarkiebob9241]

Cold Minnesota. Merry Christmas mate!

The only time I’ve been off the continent is St. Thomas. I’ve never had a passport & while other countries think it’s odd that my situation is so common in the US, the reason is our vastness! I still have dreams of spending time in the Rocky Mountains and yet, I can’t afford the trip. We have all the climates from the globe on our land mass and I’m not well traveled, so I’ve spent most of my time traveling limited to the East Coast, where I’m from. Before I attempt an overseas trip, I want to see much more of my home country…areas I’ve dreamt of my whole life but never seen. Never experienced the dryness of a desert. Never seen a waterfall. Can travel for hours in my own state by car and yet see nothing new. We’re huge & that’s why our politics are so divided. My family is from S. Carolina and growing up, their language style & customs felt like another country to me.

Merry Christmas from Wyoming Adam, to you and your precious family! I love your videos because you are naturally a funny guy-don't change for anyone!!

[@LulusMom1961]

South Carolina brother, same size as Ireland!!!! I have driven from the top of Vermont to Key West, Florida. I've driven from New Jersey to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio...in one day!

[@Catastrophic616]

MICHIGAN HERE! haha we drove 6 hours north just to see the Aurora Lights. Love my State, so beautiful

[@BreezyRenee333]

I looked out my front yard 😂😂

[@DennisRabidue]

Michigan here , the great lakes are as big as the UK lol wanna go fishing 😂

[@AmedaHolmes]

Texan here. Just to give you a couple examples of how big Texas is. The Dallas / Fort metroplex is 9,286 square miles. That is larger than the states of Rhode Island and Connecticut combined. The DFW airport is actually larger than the island of Manhattan. Distances are also measured in hours. From Dallas to Los Angeles is 24 hours of driving time, and half of that is in Texas. 🤠 Have a Great Christmas!

[@DustinCook1994]

Much love from Oregon, mate!

[@Chris-ib8lw]

Pennsylvania here. I live in the valleys south of Harrisburg real close to the border of Maryland. Funny enough one of the towns I live near is named Greencastle.

[@m2hmghb]

I've been thinking of moving to northern PA. Just tired of NJ. Hope you're doing well.

[@ordinarynocturne]

Oh hey, I know Greencastle! I'm further west but still a hello from a not-quite-local! 😁 And yeah, the good ol' Mason-Dixon Line. I used to live a few miles from it. Go another few miles and I would've been already through Maryland and into West Virginia, lol.

[@cliffcannon]

A 70-year Californian here ... California and Nevada taken together are larger than all of continental France ...
