Kansas Geography
The Kansas landscape is as varied as the more than 2.5 million people who live here. The Kansas Landscape
The 14th largest state in the country, Kansas has a huge surface area - a total of more than 50 million acres. Look for the eleven different regions on the map:
  • Ozark Plateau Cherokee Lowlands Osage Cuesta Glaciated Region Flint Hills Smoky Hills High Plains Arkansas River Lowlands Red Hills Wellington-McPherson Lowlands

  • Southeast Kansas: A Coal Mining Heritage
    You have probably read about the coal mines of West Virginia, but did you know that coal also is mined in Kansas?
    Do you know how your town got its name? The names of the cities and town of Kansas, as well as the roads and streets within them, all tell us something about their unique histories.
    The Name Game
    Match the names of Kansas towns with their geographical features. A Ride with the Wind
    "Everybody thinks Kansas is flat: it's not flat at all," said Jason Cole about his bicycle ride across Kansas last summer. Preserving the Prairie Kansas harbors one of the our country's most precious natural resources - native prairie. The Flint Hills region is one of the few remaining locations in the United States where great stretches of unplowed grassland remain.

    W elcome to Kansas, nicknamed the Sunflower State, but also known as the Jayhawk State, the Midway State, and the Wheat State. This region of plains and prairie is the breadbasket of the country, growing more wheat than any other state in the union. I n 1822, the Santa Fe Trail brought hundreds and hundreds of wagons through Kansas, and as the population grew, Kansas became a state in 1861. Cattle drives and railroads continued to change the face of the state, and Dodge City became home to the largest cattle market in the world, gaining notoriety in the process as the rough and tumbling home to the likes of Wyatt Earp, Wild Bill Hickok, and Bat Masterson. Today, cattle, wheat, corn, and soybeans form the base for the agricultural economy. THE NAME: The state of Kansas was named after the river. The Kansas River was named by the French after the Kansas, Omaha, Kaw, Osage and Dakota Sioux Indian word "KaNze" meaning, in the Kansas language "south wind." The state name for Arkansas shares its origins with Kansas.
