McFarland: I-70 at Alma Exit 328
Interstate 70 at Alma straddles the rolling Flint Hills of east-central Kansas, placing a major cross-country highway through a predominantly rural landscape. It runs close to Alma, the seat of Wabaunsee County, whose historic core is noted for buildings made from locally quarried limestone; the town calls itself the City of Native Stone. The Flint Hills contain one of North America’s largest remaining expanses of tallgrass prairie, and grassland with scattered trees shapes the countryside around the road. I-70, authorized as part of the Interstate Highway System in 1956, connects this part of Kansas to the wider east–west national route.

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.
