Welcome to Illinois. The Land of Lincoln. The Prairie State. This midwestern state is famous for a lot of things, especially surrounding the windy city of Chicago, but how much do you actually know about it? Illinois became a state on December 3rd, 1818, celebrating its inclusion as the 21st state in the United States of America. Since then, a lot has changed – but not so much its dimensions.

Once we learn about its total north-to-south distance, we can see how that stacks up against other states.
