North America, the third largest continent in area, extends from the Arctic Ocean in the north to South America in the south.  Stretching from below the Tropic of Cancer to above the Arctic Circle and spanning the North American continent, the United States is big. It is a country defined by open spaces and an amazing breadth of terrain. From sparse deserts to lush forests to snow-capped peaks to rolling fields of grain, the American landscape sprouts new views from state to state—even from neighborhood to neighborhood.

The United States covers the entire midsection of North America, stretching from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west. It also includes Alaska, in the northwest corner of North America; and Hawaii, far out in the Pacific. Capital: Washington, D. C.
