  • Illinois Indiana
    Comparing and Contrasting Illinois and Indiana Name: _________________________ Illinois Located in the Midwestern United States, Illinois is known as the Land of Lincoln because Abraham Lincoln made the state capital, Springfield, his home for many years before he was president. Illinois became America’s 21st state on December 3, 1818. It borders Michigan, Indiana, Iowa, Wisconsin, Missouri, and Kentucky. Its northeast coast borders Lake Michigan, making it one of the Great Lake states as well. Illinois is largely grasslands and prairies. The Mississippi River forms its eastern border and the Ohio River forms its southern border. Chicago is the largest city in Illinois and the third largest city in the entire country. It is nicknamed the “Windy City” because of the harsh winds that form off of Lake Michigan and streak through the city in winter. Chicago’s Sears Tower was once the tallest building in the world. With over 12.5 million people, Illinois is the nation’s sixth largest state by population. Its state bird, the cardinal, is also the state bird of six other states. Indiana Indiana became America’s 19th state on December 11, 1816. It is nicknamed the Hoosier State. The origin of the word “Hoosier” remains unknown, but today it refers to a citizen of Indiana and has been in use since as early as 1833. Indiana is located in the Midwestern United States and borders Michigan, Illinois, Ohio, and Kentucky. Its northwestern coast borders Lake Michigan, thus, making it one of the Great Lakes states as well. The Ohio River forms its southern border between it and Kentucky.
