West Virginia is a state in the Appalachian and Mid-Atlantic regions of the United States, bordered by Virginia to the southeast,
Kentucky to the southwest, Ohio to the northwest, and Pennsylvania and Maryland to the northeast. The capital and largest city is Charleston.
West Virginia became a state following the Wheeling Conventions, breaking away from Virginia during the American Civil War. The new
state was admitted to the Union on June 20, 1863, and was a key Civil War border state. West Virginia was the only state to form by
seceding from a Confederate state, and was one of only two states formed during the American Civil War (the other one being Nevada,
which separated from Utah Territory).
West Virginia is located entirely within the Appalachian Mountain range and all areas are mountainous; for this reason it is nicknamed
The Mountain State and also is partially the reason why its motto is "Mountaineers are always free." About 75% of the state is within the
Cumberland Plateau and Allegheny Plateau regions. Though the relief is not high, the plateau region is extremely rugged in most areas.
The average elevation of West Virginia is approximately 1,500 feet above sea level, which is the highest of any US state east
of the Mississippi River.
