Easy-- there's only two, Wyoming and south of it, Colorado. Colorado in fact
appears to be slightly rectangular. All the others have at least one more
or less irregular boundary.
As a child, I delighted in putting together a jigsaw puzzle of the US-- 48
pieces at that time. An excellent learning tool. Presumably other
countries/regions could have such things too. The provinces of Colombia?
The shires of England?? (Hmm-- maybe someone should make a jigsaw puzzle of
Ill Bethisad.....)
Extra points: which state (or states) is/are bordered by the greatest
number of other states?
