Rhode Island, officially the State of Rhode Island and Providence
Plantations, is located in New England region, and is bordered by Connecticut, Massachusetts, and the Atlantic Ocean. It is the smallest
in area, the eighth least populous, and the second most densely
populated (behind New Jersey) of the 50 U.S. states. It is only 60km
wide and 77km long, yet has a tidal shoreline on Narragansett Bay and
the Atlantic Ocean of 618km, reason why it is nicknamed the Ocean State.
