Here's another: Washington's state stone is petrified wood, which is what Venice, Italy is sitting on. It was an island built on a large pile of wood, essentially, and so as it has petrified, the city has sunk. I wouldn't wait much longer to visit, if you haven't. And Seattle once burnt to the ground just before the 1900s. The city rebuilt upon the ruins and you can take a tour of some of them. Since the pacific coast interacts with the Juan de fuca plate that has been overdue for sixty years to have a massive earthquake, I also wouldn't wait long to visit here because the city will slide off into the sound.

The United States is called the United States because it is just a bunch of states coming together. This means layers of governments from local to state to federal and is why each state votes to elect representatives for the federal government. As the US grew in size things like trees, birds, and flowers because extremely important since things like fedex and easy access to medicine wasn’t available and these were remedies to a lot of problems. With the development of railroads and other vehicles transportation of resources became a lot easier which meant the dependence on local resources generally decreased. Geography plays an important role in development and causes things like state trees to exist especially when the country develops and moves away from local resource dependency.

This is a great wood project book kzbin.infoUgkxkPIWb22DigCqxmlXerCyUF4HCl6eSU2L . Most of the projects use the pallet simply as a source of reclaimed wood not as a recognizable pallet so even if you didn't have a pallet you could make these projects with any reclaimed (or even new) wood. The instructions are excellent. The style is charming and would work with lots of different decor. There are quite a number of projects that involve tiling of teh wood pieces which is a really cool idea and can produce beautiful pieces when working with aged wood.

Just one tree produces many pecans by the bucketful and is well adapted to the climate, stretching high all year round. It's truly a tree I have a childhood longing for and there truly is no better tree for my home state.

14:41 Thank you for teaching me about this species. There were two beautiful, gorgeous Colorado spruces in the yard of my childhood home; sadly, both have since been reduced to stumps (one from a BAD storm, the other due to organic causes). I really loved those trees, and remembering them is threatening to make me cry like I did back then. So many memories in those beautiful branches 🥲💕

As a fellow Utahn, it felt refreshing to be first for once 😂 I didn't know we'd changed to the Quakie. Love that for us.

Js but there are tree lovers in far more places then Oregon, granted you have alot of trees but that doesn't give you a monopoly on loving them. Again js..

Hey I never saw the originals as I don't use TikTok but I just watched this video through its entirety and man was it beautiful to watch you create these majestic pieces from raw wood. Thanks for putting this together in one video for us to enjoy here on KZbin! I thought how cool it would be to own something like this but realized it would probably cost like $50,000 minimum and show likely go into the White House someday as a piece of art. So ridiculously cool man!

As a native Ohioan I’d like to point out that there is one thing we do with the Buckeye that you didn’t mention We make chocolate candies in its likeness. They’re usually balls of peanut butter with a chocolate layer on the outside and the peanut butter peaking out at one part to make it look like a buckeye, my grandma likes them but I’ve always thought they were way too sweet

This was a great idea for a series, the map turned out absolutely beautiful, the videos are interesting and informative, and the whole thing from the editing to the audio to the states themselves are all really well produced. You absolutely deserve all the notoriety you've earned from this project.

41:44 The plane tree. It’s very subtle, but it is a very nice scent that you can smell ever so slightly when walking underneath a group of them.

2:40 As an Oregonian, there's a cute legend about the douglas fir. It's called "The Douglas-Fir and the Mouse" Legend says that a long time ago there was a large fire in the forests of the west. Many animals were running around frantically trying to escape the flames. Tiny mice, not fast enough to outrun the fire, were trying to find shelter in various trees. The mice approached many trees asking for their help and were continuously denied. Finally they approached the large and mighty Douglas fir tree and asked if they could take shelter amongst its branches. The Douglas fir agreed to help the mice and allowed them to hide in its cones. The mice survived the fire, and to this day, if you examine a Douglas fir cone you can see the tails of the mice sticking out of the scales of a cone.

As a Rhode Islander, i appreciate you trying to give at least the indication of the bay that is our state's most distinctive feature, but is frequently lost at these scales.

What i really love about magnolia trees are that they are one of the few species of trees that have been around so long in Earth's history that their main pollinators are beetles rather than bees, because magnolias evolved at a time before bees were around. I think it's so crazy how amazing trees are, and how so many of the species we know and love have been around since before modern humans were even here!

I'm from Texas and some of my best memories are going to the park with my dad and picking pecans, taking them home, and watching my mom make her famous southern pecan pie. Great video! Love the pecan tree.

Growing up in Staten Island, NY we have a place called the Conference House which played an important role in the Revolutionary War, but I always was struck by a large old tree out in front that predated the house. It was humbling to think of Benjamin Franklin and General Howe meeting under that tree and all the history it saw.

Idea: you should make a globe were each country is made up of it’s native tree! That would be really cool! Also, I loved the video, I enjoyed learning about my home state and current state!
