The panhandle of Oklahoma might possibly be the most boring stretch of the entire U.S. It makes Kansas look scenic, and that's no exaggerration.
They are both absolutely horrible to have to drive east/west through, hundreds of miles of flat nothingness.

I agree. Both are worthless. I physically get sick in Kansas, so I guess Oklahoma is slightly better.
But that's like saying normal brown poop is slightly better than green poop or diarrhea.

I know Arkansas's history, but I really don't know how Missouri picked its borders. Could you enlighten me? How did they carve present-day Missouri out of this?
Sorry cannot remember all the details. To teach in Arkansas I had to take Arkansas History last year and we talked about Missouri dropping Arkansas. I sold back my books so cannot look it up.
