Wyoming, WY

Wyoming is the least populous state in the United States, consisting of many mountainous ranges and bordered by Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Colorado, Utah and Idaho. Its capital city, Cheyenne, has a population of just under 60,000 people and is named after the Cheyenne tribe, one of the more prominent Native American tribes in the region. Wyoming is both an agricultural and mineral state, producing beef, wool and a number of extracted products like coal, oil and gas. Much of Wyoming’s land is owned by the government and protected through national parks like Yellowstone and Grand Teton. As a result, the topography and geography of Wyoming is wild and untouched, with canyons, mountains and trails across a total land area of 97,914 square miles.
