Ohio

The 17th State added to the U.S.A. It is a belle weather state and has accurately decided the president for almost every election. It's nickname is the buckeye state. It's capital, Columbus, is the largest city in the state, and the second largest including it's suburbs. Cleveland, the largest city with its suburbs is home to the Cleveland Clinic, Case and CSU. Also home to Akron, the rubber capital of the world, home to UA, the only polymer engineering school in the nation. Also has Toledo and Cincinnati and Dayton. They have respective colleges named after the cities. It is also home to Miami of Ohio, a "public ivy"- rated top for education and business. There is also Kent State which is famous for the Kent state shootings and has a constant rivalry with Akron. OU, KSU, UA, and UT are some of the Ohio teams in the MAC Conference.

Ohio does have the crazy weather patterns that others describe and its considered the "mother state"- tied with Virginia for number of president who were born in said state. It is the 7th most populous in the nation and has an infinite water supply, unlike the South or the West. It is a politically mixed state. The southern half of the state South of the Akron-Canton area), except Columbus is mostly farms. The northern half is industry (auto, rubber, steel, et cetera.) It is considered part of the mid-west but those from the northeastern half generally consider themselves as a part of the East.
