About location

Old US-82 near Shives is best known in southeastern Arkansas as a former alignment of U.S. Route 82. This rural road lies in Chicot County, part of the low-lying Arkansas Delta, a region shaped by the Mississippi River and its floodplain. U.S. 82 is a long east–west highway across the southern United States; its older alignments recall the era when through traffic passed directly through small Delta communities. Around Shives, level agricultural land and a sparse road network define the setting. Lake Chicot, an oxbow lake formed by an earlier course of the Mississippi, is the area's best-known water feature and lies near Lake Village.

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.
