The
"Volunteer State" of the US. Located
in the upper South of the eastern United States, it became the 16th
state of the Union in 1796. The geography of Tennessee, an area of
42,144 square miles (109,153 square kilometers) is unique. Its
extreme breadth of 432 miles (695 kilometers) stretches from the
Appalachian Mountain boundary with North Carolina in the east to the
Mississippi River borders with Missouri and Arkansas in the west.
Its narrow width, only 112 miles, separates its northern neighbors,
Kentucky and Virginia, from Georgia, Alabama, and Mississippi on the
south. Nashville is the capital and Memphis the largest city.
