Arkansas, South Central state in United States
Arkansas extends from the Ozark Mountains in the north to the Mississippi River in the east, featuring dense forests and agricultural valleys.
Arkansas joined the Union as the 25th state in 1836, following the Louisiana Purchase from France and subsequent territorial development.
The state capital Little Rock gained national attention in 1957 when nine African American students entered Central High School under federal protection.
The state maintains 52 parks, including Hot Springs National Park, with extensive networks of hiking trails and camping facilities throughout the region.
Arkansas contains the only active diamond mine in North America, where visitors can search and keep any gems they discover.
