Since my son just did a project about it, I can tell you it's the smallest state in the U.S., it's not an island but it HAS islands, including Block Island which was possibly the inspiration for the state being named after the Greek Island of Rhodes.\nIt's about 20 miles across, east to west.

The smallest republic in the world is the Republic of Nauru, created in 1962 after being passed around from New Zealand to Germany to the United Kingdom, and in not that order. It is the only country in the world without a capital as well-the government offices are in Yaren disctrict, one of 14 districts. It's 8.2 square miles in area.

One thing is to break the states down into regions. There are seven they naturally break down into:\n\nNew England: ME, NH, VT, MA, RI. CT\nMid Atlantic: NY, NJ, PA, MD, DE, WV \nSouth (Confederate): VA, NC, SC, GA, FL. Al, MS, LA, TX, AR, TN, KY\nMidwest: OH, MI, IN, IL, WI, MN, IA\nPlains: MO, ND, SD, NE, KS, OK\nWest: MT, WY, CO, NM, AZ, UT, NV, ID\nPacific: CA, OR, WA, AK, HA\n\nIf you think of the states regionally, it does help.

I'm not sure. Every state has something special about them. I guess they're not many states that have a little of everything. I'd probably say Wisconsin.
