Geography, Mississippi Facts
About half of Alabama
Mississippi is bordered by Tennessee on the north and the
Gulf of Mexico on the south. On the east, Mississippi borders Alabama, and on
the west, Arkansas and Louisiana. The highest point in Mississippi is Woodall
Mountain, although it can hardly be called a mountain, being only 806 feet above
sea level. The major rivers of the state are the Mississippi River, the Big
Black River, the Pearl River, and the Yazoo River.
There is a low fertile delta of land between the Yazoo and the Mississippi
Rivers, but much of the state is composed of sandy coastal terraces, pine woods,
and prairie.
