Wichita: I-235 at Seneca S
Wichita is best known within Kansas for its long-standing aircraft-manufacturing industry. The city’s identity as the Air Capital of the World reflects the presence of major aviation companies and decades of plane building. At the junction of Interstate 235 and Seneca Street, broad divided roads, generous grass verges and detached housing illustrate the open urban form of southwest Wichita. The Arkansas River runs through the city; downtown, it meets the Little Arkansas River at the Keeper of the Plains, a 44-foot steel sculpture by Blackbear Bosin. Wichita is the principal urban center of south-central Kansas, with a regional economy shaped by aviation, health care, education and trade.

The terrain of Kansas ranges from rolling hills in the east to High Plains grassland in the west, creating a broad, open state shaped by prairie and long river valleys. This central area lies within the agricultural heartland, where wheat fields and cattle country extend across the plains. The Arkansas River follows a wide course through central and southern Kansas, while the Flint Hills to the east preserve one of North America’s largest remaining expanses of tallgrass prairie. Kansas also holds an important place in US civil-rights history: the Brown v. Board of Education case began in Topeka.

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.
