Mississippi |
 | | Mississippi is bordered on the north by the state of Tennessee, on the east by Alabama, on the south by Louisiana and the Gulf of Mexico, and on the west by Louisiana and Arkansas (across the Mississippi River). |
 | | Mississippi is heavily forested, with over half of the state's acreage covered by wild trees (mostly pine trees, but Mississippi has an abundance of other trees) (cottonwood, elm, hickory, oak, pecan, sweet gum, and tupelo). |
 | | Mississippi was the second state to secede from the Union as one of the Confederate States of America on January 9, 1861. |
