	U.S. state - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A state of the United States is any one of the fifty subnational entities referred to as a state (although four officially favor the term commonwealth) which, along with the District of Columbia, under the provisions of the United States Constitution form the United States of America.
		The separate state governments and the United States federal government share sovereignty, in that an "American" is a citizen both of the federal entity and of his or her state of residence.
		States are free to organize their state governments any way they like, as long as they conform to the rather minimal requirements in the U.S. Constitution.
