Texas

Texas showcases a diverse and expansive topography that spans approximately 268,000 square miles (694,117 Km²), making it the second-largest state in the United States. The landscape ranges from the arid deserts of West Texas, characterized by broad valleys and mesas, to the rolling hills of the Texas Hill Country, where steep canyons and fast-moving streams carve the terrain. The state's eastern regions, such as the Coastal Plains, are marked by flat, low-lying land with fertile soil ideal for agriculture, supporting crops like rice and cotton. Elevation varies significantly across the state, with Guadalupe Peak rising to 8,751 feet (2,667 meters), the highest point in Texas, while the lowest point is sea level along the Gulf Coast. This varied topography not only shapes Texas's climate and ecosystems but also influences its agricultural practices and natural resources.
