Shipping from the State of Rhode Island to Wyoming
Rhode Island, measuring only about 48 miles long and 37 miles wide, is the smallest of the U.S. states. Despite its small area, Rhode Island, known as the “Ocean State,” boasts over 400 miles of coastline. Rhode Island was founded by Roger Williams in 1636, who had been banished from the Massachusetts colony for his advocacy of religious tolerance and the separation of church and state.
During the colonial period, Newport was a major hub for shipping and trade, and in the 19th century, Rhode Island was at the forefront of the Industrial Revolution and the establishment of power-driven textile mills. Rhode Island hosted the first National Lawn Tennis Championship in 1899 and is home to the Tennis Hall of Fame. Famous Rhode Islanders include novelists Cormac MacCarthy and Jhumpa Lahiri, actor James Woods, television personality Meredith Vieira and Civil War U.S. Army officer Ambrose Burnside.
Shipping to the State of Rhode Island to Wyoming
Wyoming was the 44th state to join the Union in 1890. It was also the first U.S. state to allow women to vote. This achievement represented one of the early victories of the American women’s suffrage movement. Today, although it is the 10th largest state by area, Wyoming has the smallest populace of all the states, with a little over 550,000 residents. The state is home to most of Yellowstone National Park, one of the most reputable national parks in the country.
On a yearly basis, millions of tourists visit Wyoming to see the geyser Old Faithful and the Grand Prismatic Spring and a variety of wildlife including moose, elk, bighorn sheep, wolves, coyotes, eagles, black bears, and grizzly bears. The Grand Prismatic Spring is the largest hot spring in the United States.
