Geography, Kansas Facts
About half of Alabama
Kansas is bordered by Nebraska on the north and Oklahoma
on the south. To the east is Missouri and to the west is Colorado. It is the
15th largest of the 50 states.
Kansas is almost rectangular in shape is lies mostly in the Great Plains. The
land consists of rolling plains and can be divided into three geographic
regions: the Dissected Till Plains in the northeast, the Southeastern Plains to
the west, and the Great Plains covering the western half of the state. Mount
Sunflower is the highest point in Kansas and is located in the Great Plains near
the Colorado border. Major rivers include the Arkansas River, the Kansas River
and the Missouri River.
The eastern part of the state receives the greatest amount of rainfall, and
occasional dust storms plague farmers and ranchers in the west.
