Delta: Highway 13 at 264 Street Diversion, south of 8 Avenue, looking south
Few places in Metro Vancouver have a history as closely tied to the Fraser River’s fertile delta as Delta. The city occupies low-lying land between the river’s south arm and Boundary Bay, where farming, river trade and coastal transport have long shaped settlement. Incorporated as a municipality in 1879, Delta now brings together the communities of Ladner, North Delta and Tsawwassen. Highway 17 is a key connection here, running between Highway 99 and the Tsawwassen ferry terminal while also serving Deltaport at Roberts Bank. Farmland remains central to the municipality, and Boundary Bay forms part of the Pacific Flyway, an important bird-migration route.

Among Colorado’s cities, Delta stands out for its position at the confluence of the Gunnison and Uncompahgre rivers, where irrigated farmland meets the drier country of the Western Slope. As the seat of Delta County, it serves an agricultural district known for orchards, vineyards and farms sustained by water from the regional river system. The town lies south of Grand Mesa, the immense flat-topped landform that shapes the surrounding horizon and rises into cooler forest country. Downtown’s Egyptian Theatre, opened in 1928, preserves a distinctive example of early cinema architecture.

Among the states of the United States, Colorado stands out for the high Rocky Mountain country running through its centre. Around this part of the state, forested slopes, open basins and granite outcrops form the interior landscape of the Rockies, where conditions can change rapidly with the season. The Continental Divide crosses Colorado, separating waters that flow toward the Pacific from those bound for the Atlantic and Gulf coasts. The Arkansas River rises in the central Rockies and is one of the state’s major waterways. Admitted to the Union in 1876, Colorado is still known as the Centennial State.

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.
