A diverse population has impacted history in the U.S. from the very beginning. From the first travelers and colonists to the modern-day, the United States has been a country of immigrants. Many groups have combined to shape America’s history and give the society that the country has today.

Besides, the U.S. is the third-largest country globally by landmass – almost as big as the whole continent of Europe.

Therefore, differences between U.S. states and territories can be significant. The maps below illustrate the different ways of dividing the territory of the United States.
