Spanning over 8 million square kilometers, this vast area is home to 48 states nestled between Canada and Mexico. The main geographical features that dominate this landscape are beautifully depicted in this illustration. The majestic Rocky Mountains majestically stretch across the western region, while the Appalachian Mountains gracefully adorn the eastern part of Mainland USA. In contrast to these towering mountain ranges, the central Great Plains showcase expansive prairies that contribute to its distinct charm.
