North Carolina is a state in the Southern United States. One of the original states, it is home to the first English colony in the Americas. It was also the location of the first successful flight of the Wright brothers' airplane — one of the first heavier than air flying machines.

Geography


North Carolina is bordered by South Carolina on the south; Georgia on the southwest; Tennessee on the west; Virginia on the north; and the Atlantic Ocean on the east. The United States Census Bureau classifies North Carolina as a Southern state in the subcategory of being one of the South Atlantic States.

North Carolina consists of three geographic sections: the coastal plain, which occupies the eastern 45% of the state; the Piedmont region, which contains the middle 35%; and the Appalachian Mountains and foothills, which take up the remaining 20% of the state in the west.
