Pacific states

The West Pacific States form one of the nine geographic divisions within the United States that are officially recognized by that country's census bureau.[4] There are five states in this division – Alaska, California, Hawaii, Oregon, Washington – and, as its name suggests, they all have coastlines on the Pacific Ocean (and are the only US states that border that ocean). The Pacific States division is one of two divisions of the United States Census Bureau's Western region, the other being the Mountain States.

Despite being slotted into the same region by the Census Bureau, the Pacific, and Mountain divisions are vastly different from one another in many vital respects, most notably in the arena of politics; while nearly all of the Mountain states are regarded as being conservative "red states", four out of five of the Pacific states (all except Alaska) are clearly counted among the liberal "blue states".

Although not states, the three inhabited pacific U.S. territories (American Samoa, Guam and the Northern Mariana Islands) and the pacific U.S. Minor Outlying Islands (excluding Navassa Island) are sometimes grouped with Pacific states in statistics.[7]

gollark: ↓ you
gollark: As can be seen, I have demolished all objections and thus am right.
gollark: This can be shown to be valid:
gollark: I CLEARLY said `= (maybe)`.
gollark: However, apiohax = P = (maybe) NP = 0 (mod N). Therefore, as rings may be noncommutative, it is the case that the left ideal, 7, is an eigenvalue of the matrix expansion of the general bee formula. By basic applications of previously proven lemmas, it can be shown that this makes apiohax isomorphic to the group (ℤ, +). The implications are obvious.
