Iowa: Heartland Power and Hidden Wonders

Iowa is secretly the most powerful state in the entire country. While everyone thinks

it is just endless cornfields and soybeans, this place is literally America’s Heartland. It sits right between

the Mississippi and Missouri rivers and actually decides who gets to run for president because

of the famous Iowa caucuses. Beyond the politics, the geography is wild with ancient

windblown soil forming the Loess Hills and massive limestone caves to explore. Just make sure you

behave yourself if you visit, because there is a specific law here that makes it illegal

to throw a brick onto a highway.
