The "Bluegrass State" of the US. Rivers define Kentucky's boundaries except on the south, where it shares a border with Tennessee along a nearly straight line of about 425 miles (685 kilometers), and on its mountainous southeastern border with Virginia. The Tug and Big Sandy rivers separate it from West Virginia on the east and northeast. From the point where the Big Sandy empties into the Ohio River, the crested northern boundary cuts an irregular line across the country, following the Ohio and meeting the states of Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois to the north. Where the Ohio flows into the Mississippi, the short western edge of the state is separated by the Mississippi from Missouri. These boundaries encompass the state's area of 40,410 square miles (104,660 square kilometers). The capital, Frankfort, lies between the two major cities, Louisville, which is on the Ohio River, and Lexington.
