USIA - Portrait Of The USA, Ch. 2
This chapter examines American geography, history, and customs through the to Nebraskaand including Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, illinois, Minnesota, Iowa
http://usinfo.state.gov/usa/infousa/facts/factover/ch2.htm

Extractions: high temperatures on a given day in the United States to reach 70 degrees Fahrenheit (about 40 degrees Celsius). The United States owes much of its national character and its wealth to its good fortune in having such a large and varied landmass to inhabit and cultivate. Yet the country still exhibits marks of regional identity, and one way Americans cope with the size of their country is to think of themselves as linked geographically by certain traits, such as New England self-reliance, southern hospitality, midwestern wholesomeness, western mellowness. This chapter examines American geography, history, and customs through the filters of six main regions: New England , made up of Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. The Middle Atlantic , comprising New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Maryland. The South , which runs from Virginia south to Florida and west as far as central Texas. This region also includes West Virginia, Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, Arkansas, Louisiana, and parts of Missouri and Oklahoma. The Midwest , a broad collection of states sweeping westward from Ohio to Nebraska and including Michigan, Indiana, Wisconsin, Illinois, Minnesota, Iowa, parts of Missouri, North Dakota, South Dakota, Kansas, and eastern Colorado.

Principal cargoes, carried chiefly by barges, are coal, petroleum, and grain products. Recreational areas have been developed along the waterway.

http://reference.allrefer.com/encyclopedia/I/IllinSta-geography.html

Extractions: By Alphabet : Encyclopedia A-Z I Related Category: U.S. Political Geography The broad level lands that gave Illinois the nickname Prairie State were fashioned by late Cenozoic glaciation, which leveled rugged ridges and filled valleys over the northern and central parts of the state. The fertile prairies are drained by more than 275 rivers, most of which flow to the Mississippi-Ohio system; the Illinois is the largest river in the state. These rivers provided early explorers a way SW from Lake Michigan into the interior of the continent and later, in the days of canal building, played a big part in hastening settlement of the prairies. The completion of the Erie Canal linked Illinois, through the Great Lakes, to the eastern seaboard of the United States. The Illinois Waterway links Chicago to the Mississippi basin as the old Chicago and Illinois and Michigan canals once did, and the St. Lawrence Seaway provides access for oceangoing vessels. The waterways are but a part of a transportation complex that includes railroads, airlines (Chicago's O'Hare airport is one of the busiest in the world), and an extensive modern highway system. The state's climate is continental, with extreme seasonal variations of temperature in parts of the state. Among Illinois's many tourist attractions are Shawnee National Forest, with recreational facilities; the Cahokia Mounds; and many state parks and historical sites, including New Salem and Lincoln's home and burial place in Springfield. An additional summer attraction is the Illinois State Fair.

Producing Aggregate in the Quarries of Illinois Guest Column by GeoT Dateline: 07/13/01 The caller to the radio talk show said he "creates wealth" for a living - he runs a rock crusher! Yes, he does create wealth. The only place wealth is created is from the earth (one way or another) and crushing rock is one of the ways! Wealth to the tune of many millions dollars a year statewide! 425 million years ago found a very different Illinois than that of today. This was the Silurian Period of geologic time The coral reefs belong to the middle Silurian, the Niagaran Series, part of a geologic complex surrounding the Michigan Basin, and taking its name from the famous waterfall between Lake Erie and Lake Ontario. It's amazing to think that same rock underlies parts of Illinois. But it does! Following the Chicago fire of 1871 the need for more substantial fireproof buildings was obvious. Stone and brick this time! Much of the stone used was a dolomite belonging to the Silurian Period. Quarries near Joliet and Lemont produced great quantities calling it 'Joliet Marble' or 'Athens marble.' (The famous surviving Chicago Water Tower was made of it prior to the fire). It weathers to a pleasing yellowish color, but in the process, has also been known to exfoliate not desired by most architects! Limestone from Indiana soon replaced the local Silurian dolomite as a building stone. No peeling from it.

Extractions: Click on the hypertext links below to see a group of maps that make up a portrait of the urban geography of Chicago and some of its suburbs in 1990. (For maps based on data from Census 2000, click here The maps are divided into three categories: Tract-Level Maps of Chicago and Close-In Suburbs Sample Maps at Other Levels of Analysis Neighborhood-Type Maps Maps Showing Changes between 1980 and 1990 These maps constitute a small subset of the essentially infinite number of maps that can be produced from 1990 census data at the University of Chicago Map Collection. Any phenomenon enumerated by the U.S. Census can be mapped at any scale for any part of the United States. The maps were produced from the U.S. Census Bureau's Tiger/Line Files and Summary Tape Files with Sammamish DataSystems' GeoSight FactFinder Professional software (version 4.3B). Most of the maps are choropleth maps: maps in which polygons (e.g., tracts) are divided into distinctly colored or shaded classes. In any choropleth map, the selection of class intervals, colors, and patterns can affect the map's message. Note that these maps will only display properly on terminals that can distinguish 256 colors (that is, those that can handle 8-bit color).
