Home›State›All StateBrowse ByAll StateReference and ClassificationVerifiedFirst-level administrative divisions whose own official designation is literally State, the term the United States, Mexico, Brazil, Nigeria, India and Australia use, among other federations, for their primary subnational units. Belongs here: any first-level division named State in its own country's usage. Does not belong here: a division called Province, Region or another term even where its role within its own country is functionally similar; the grouping follows the division's own official name, not its administrative weight.FactsAll StateSourcesComments (0)Reader Challenges (0)FactsComparisonPrimary AssociationWell-attestedUnited States 1All StateFilter Results128 entriesCountryAllAustralia (5)Brazil (17)Germany (5)India (18)Malaysia (3)Mexico (13)Nigeria (13)United States (48)Venezuela (3)Administrative Division TypeAllStates and Territories of Australia (5)States of Brazil (17)States of Germany (5)States of India (19)States of Malaysia (3)States of Mexico (13)States of Nigeria (13)States of the United States (50)States of Venezuela (3)Population BandAll1,815,165 to 3,555,818 (18)108,309 to 1,814,396 (16)11,302,748 to 241,066,874 (34)3,594,363 to 5,709,444 (24)5,766,030 to 11,233,263 (36)Area BandAll169,640 to 3,083,523 sq km (45)23,863.65 to 72,724 sq km (26)55 to 6,097.19 sq km (7)6,206 to 23,265.23 sq km (16)73,311 to 168,966 sq km (34)Admission or Founding EraAll1787 (3)1788 (8)1789 (1)1790 (1)1791 (1)1792 (1)1796 (1)1803 (1)1812 (1)1816 (1)1817 (1)1818 (1)1819 (1)1820 (1)1821 (1)1823 (6)1824 (6)1836 (1)1837 (1)1845 (2)1846 (1)1848 (1)1850 (1)1858 (1)1859 (1)1861 (1)1863 (1)1864 (2)1867 (1)1876 (1)1889 (17)1890 (2)1896 (1)1899 (1)1901 (5)1907 (1)1909 (1)1912 (3)1947 (1)1949 (3)1950 (2)1952 (2)1956 (5)1959 (2)1960 (2)1962 (1)1963 (3)1966 (2)1967 (5)1971 (1)1976 (2)1987 (3)1988 (1)1990 (1)1991 (4)2000 (2)2014 (1)ContinentAllAfrica (13)Asia (22)Australia (5)Europe (5)North America (63)South America (20)Capital CityAllAdelaide (1)Albany (1)Annapolis (1)Atlanta (1)Augusta (1)Austin (1)Barquisimeto (1)Baton Rouge (1)Belo Horizonte (1)Bengaluru (1)Benicia, California (1)Bismarck (1)Boise (1)Boston (1)Brisbane (1)Carson City (1)Charleston (1)Chennai (1)Cheyenne (1)Columbia (1)Columbus (1)Concord (1)Curitiba (1)Denver (1)Des Moines (1)Dover (1)Düsseldorf (1)Fortaleza (1)Frankfort (1)George Town (1)Guadalajara (1)Harrisburg (1)Hartford (1)Helena (1)Honolulu (1)Hyderabad (1)Ibadan (1)Indianapolis (1)Jackson (1)Jefferson City (1)Johor Bahru (1)Juneau (1)Kano (1)Kolkata (1)Lansing (1)Lincoln (1)Little Rock (1)Lucknow (1)Madison (1)Manaus (1)Maracaibo (1)Melbourne (1)Monterrey (1)Montgomery (1)Montpelier (1)Mumbai (1)Munich (1)Nagpur (1)Nashville (1)Oklahoma City (1)Olympia (1)Patna (1)Perth (1)Phoenix (1)Pierre (1)Port Harcourt (1)Providence (1)Puerto Ayacucho (1)Raleigh (1)Recife (1)Richmond (1)Rio de Janeiro (1)Sacramento (1)Saint Paul (1)Salem (1)Salt Lake City (1)Salvador (1)Santa Fe (1)Sao Paulo (1)Springfield (1)Stuttgart (1)Sydney (1)Tallahassee (1)Topeka (1)Trenton (1)Valencia (1)Show ResultsBrowseCompareSelect all 50AcreStateAkwa Ibom StateStateAlabamaStateAlagoasStateAlaskaStateAmapaStateAmazonasStateAnambra StateStateAndhra PradeshStateArizonaStateArkansasStateAssamStateBaden-WurttembergStateBahiaStateBaja CaliforniaStateBavariaStateBiharStateCaliforniaStateCaraboboStateCearaStateChhattisgarhStateChiapasStateChihuahuaStateCoahuilaStateColoradoStateConnecticutStateCross River StateStateDelawareStateDelta StateStateEdo StateStateEnugu StateStateEspirito SantoStateFloridaStateGeorgiaStateGoaStateGoiasStateGuanajuatoStateGujaratStateHaryanaStateHawaiiStateHesseStateHimachal PradeshStateIdahoStateIllinoisStateImo StateStateIndianaStateIowaStateJaliscoStateJharkhandStateJohorState123Next →Sources1.
