Sections = States no longer

[naraht]

With the *massive* reorganization of Region IV at their last Regional conference, it has become enormously clear how much the idea of Sections often being equal to states has changed. As of right now there are only 8 of the 50 states where the state boundary is equal to that of the section and almost half of those are in Region VIII. They are Utah (13), Iowa (21), Nebraska (26), Wisconsin (27), Oklahoma (32), Arkansas (33), Kansas (34), and New Jersey (99).

At one time or another, the following additional states were their own sections: Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, Ohio, Kentucky, West Virginia, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, South Carolina and Virginia.
