More Information About Michigan
Michigan is located in the northern part of the Midwest region of the United States. Its name comes from a French form of a Native American word meaning "large water" or "large lake," as it borders four Great Lakes, as well as Lake St. Clair, and has 64,980 inland lakes and ponds. Michigan is known as "The Wolverine State," which derives from the trade of wolverine furs in Sault Ste. Marie in the 18th century, though wolverines are very rare in Michigan. The state is the tenth most populated state in the U.S. and is eleventh in total area. It is the only state to consist of two peninsulas, the Upper and Lower Peninsulas, which are only connected by a bridge across the Straits of Mackinac, which joins Lake Huron and Lake Michigan. It borders Lake Erie, Lake Huron, and Lake St. Clair to the east, Lake Michigan to the west, and Lake Superior to the north. The Upper Peninsula borders Wisconsin and Minnesota, with the land boundary defined by the Menominee River and Montreal River; it also shares water boundaries in Lake Superior with Wisconsin and Minnesota to the west, and shares a water boundary in Lake Michigan with Illinois. The Lower Peninsula borders Indiana and Ohio to the south and east, sharing land and water boundaries, and a small part of Canada to the east. The largest city by population is Detroit, with Grand Rapids being the next largest; Lansing is the capital.

The Upper Peninsula is sparsely populated, but is economically important as a tourist destination as well as its natural resources. The state is widely known as a center of the U.S. automotive industry, as it is home to three major automobile companies headquartered in the Detroit area, though it has developed a diverse economy.
