Geography Whiz

Well, once again I have another funny story involving a student. Imagine that. So, the senior that comes into my Freshmen Geography class sometimes had some major insight today. I am having my students memorize all the countries on the African continent. One of the students remarked that there were a lot of countries. To which the well-educated senior said, "Well, the United States has a lot of countries too."

Quick, which country in the USA is shaped like a rectangle?

Wyoming and Colorado are the two I would say look like True rectangles.
