At the time of its discovery by Europe, North America was a place of vast wilderness and beckoning adventure. It was in this land of exploration, opportunity, and stunning natural wonder that the United States of America was settled and established. Each of the fifty states, from tropical Hawaii to pristine Alaska, is unique and fascinating.

This deck of Knowledge Cards profiles every state. Along with the basics—such as capital, date of statehood, motto, population, and median household income—the cards showcase interesting and little-known historical facts and identify the Native Americans who inhabited the area when Europeans first arrived. The front of each card highlights the state’s geographic location on a map of the United States, making this deck an enjoyable quiz game as well as a compact reference tool.
