Just some more useless trivia. Rhode Island is actually an island.
Rhode Island's official name is Rhode Island and Providence Plantations. Rhode Island is what is currently referred to as Aquidneck Island (Newport, Middletown & Portsmouth), and the rest was Providence Plantations.
I really did get the name question playing trivial pursuit one night. The question was what is the state with the longest name.
