Alma
Among the places of Arkansas, Alma stands out for its long association with spinach growing and processing. This Crawford County city lies in the Arkansas River Valley, close to the Arkansas River and west of Fort Smith, where low wooded hills meet a broad river plain. Alma calls itself the Spinach Capital of the World, a title rooted in the crop’s importance to its local economy. The annual Alma Spinach Festival turns that identity into a civic celebration, while Popeye imagery around town nods to the cartoon sailor’s enduring link with canned spinach. Interstate 40 and U.S. Route 71 place Alma on a major east–west and regional road corridor, yet its center retains the scale of a small Arkansas community.

The Atlantic, Pacific and Gulf coasts define much of the United States — their ports, fisheries and trade routes have long tied the country’s economy to the wider world. Between them, the Rocky Mountains, Great Plains and Mississippi River basin form sharply different regions, from high western ranges to broad agricultural heartlands. Cities carry much of the national story: New York’s Statue of Liberty, a gift from France dedicated in 1886, remains an enduring symbol, while Washington, DC concentrates major federal institutions. Indigenous nations have shaped these lands for millennia, and their living cultures remain essential to the country’s identity.
