Olden: CCTV-04
Tucked into the Western Cross Timbers of North Central Texas, Olden is a place whose character is shaped by open ranchland and the transport corridors of Eastland County. Interstate 20 passes through this low, gently rolling part of the county, where pasture, scattered trees and service roads define a largely rural setting. The Cross Timbers is a broad belt of oak woodland and prairie running through Texas and Oklahoma, and its mix of grassland and woodland gives this area a distinct regional texture. Eastland County was transformed by the Ranger oil boom, which began in 1917 and remains central to the story of this part of Texas.

Olden has served as a railroad community in Eastland County since the late 19th century. Set amid the rolling ranch country of the Western Cross Timbers in north-central Texas, it developed when the Texas & Pacific Railway built through the area in 1880. The community remains close to Interstate 20 and the larger town of Eastland, reflecting the region’s long connection to rail travel, cattle country and small-town Texas.

The terrain of Texas ranges from pine forests in the east to deserts and mountain ranges in the west, creating striking contrasts in climate, vegetation, and settlement. The state also stretches from the Gulf of Mexico coast to the High Plains, with the limestone hills of the Hill Country lying between. The Rio Grande forms much of Texas’s border with Mexico and has long shaped its geography and cross-border connections. Austin, the state capital, is a major centre for music and technology, while San Antonio’s Alamo recalls the 1836 battle central to Texas history. Ranching traditions, Mexican and Indigenous heritage, and a vast road network give the state a distinctly varied character.

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.
