Idahos potatoes probably aren't exported, not even during the Irish Potato Famine. Other countries can easily grow potatoes and manufacturers probably use the regional crop for their products. But who knows - I'm sure there's a potato aficionado in Siberia wishing he had some of Idahos finest right now.

Idaho wasn't a state during the potato famine, so I bet you're right.

i don't think rhode island is anywhere near nd or montana.  nothing in the northeast is.  smallest state.  ivy league and large universities.  i think provincetown is "gay capital" of the us.  lots of stuff going on for such a small place.

thats cause you live in the northeast are educated and travel a lot...outside of new england nine of ten people dont even know brown is a college much less ivy league and i would say 5/10 people in the country dont know its a state much less recognize it as a state for any reason...as i said before imagine if rhode island was btwn washington state and oregon...it wouldnt exist to even you

rhode island being in new england, on the east coast and having providence doesnt make it significant, but it makes it more significant than montana, wyoming and north dakota.

between those 3, yellowstone and a semi recognizable capital like cheyenne put wyoming over the top.

choosing between montana and north dakota in terms of significance is borderline impossible. the most significant thing about montana is joe montana and hes not even from there. for north dakota its easy to remember because you just pair it with south dakota.

so its a tie i suppose.

youre right no one does

but that alone makes it more significant than montana or north dakota. it doesnt make it significant at all, but still more so than anything in MA

Montana is Big Sky country and in addition to many beautiful many national forests and other landscapes is home to Glacier National Park, one of the most maginificent places on the planet.

How can one compare this state to North Dakota?

They're both cold and border Canada?

Little is known about either Montana or North Dakota. There's your winners.

Can we rename this the argue about nothing thread?

IGY, you're a tard for thinking Delaware is the worst state. Hell one of the worst states ever is directly to your south.....and lets just go ahead and include the whole Bible Belt in that category.


As for this thread...the answer is Iowa by and far. No one EVER remembers that state, and when they do they only remember that the capital is Des Moines. They have no professional sports teams, and the Hawkeyes are...mildly known. If that.

Other than that, it can also be known (read: not known) for being the home state of two of America's tragedies...Herbert Hoover, and Slipknot.


North Dakota is more well known if only for being one of two states with "North" in it. North and South Dakota, while very insignificant, are always grouped together and thus remembered. Iowa...seriously no one ever remembers that damn state even exists, and I can't think of one important thing that it actually contributes to America....Not even a pretty good movie.



wow you might be dumber than reece

lol at the "north" comment

iowa might be the most important state in the whole friggin country every four years you dumb farg

and delaware very well could be the worst state in the country...it has no reason to exist other than to have the worst stretch of highway in the united states...but it doesnt win this contest simply because its the first state and if you had read the thread i said as such

now go back to your trailer son


Yeah, it's a good thing Iowa is remembered every 4 years. No one even remembers it's a state between those times.

And you really are a dumb shtein. DuPont is certainly known country wide. I don't even have to go on, you lose.
Plus it's a pretty big supplier of all that fried chicken you feed your fat ass with.

perhaps you could explain sd's reasons for "disliking" it as well since you seem to be so in tune with other peoples minds
