Nebraska

Admitted as the 37th state in 1867, Nebraska stands as the 16th-largest U.S. state by area and is home to the unicameral legislature, the only non-partisan legislative body in the nation. Its capital, Lincoln, and largest city, Omaha, anchor a landscape defined by the Platte River and the Cornhusker nickname, spanning from the Missouri River in the east to the rugged Panhandle in the west.
