The 50 states of the U.S.A can often get Europeans confused. Is there really that much difference between Mississippi and Alabama? Washington and Oregon? To outsiders not so much, but of course locals will definitely let you know! To get more clarification on how to distinguish between them, one Redditor asked Americans what are the things everyone should know about each state. It's hard to say if this person got what they were asking for, but the result is definitely amusing.

While some users offered tactful descriptions about unique nature of their states and shared important historical facts, others were a lot more candid. Americans dispelled absurd myths, showed what makes them proud and didn't hesitate to point fingers at their own flaws with hilarious examples. Proving once again that they know how to laugh at themselves. Scroll down to see for yourself!

I totally agree. Last year IN passed a slow poke law no impeding traffic in left lane and 1/2 the population are all upset about it.

You can't go anywhere without seeing a gun shop or a homeless person, sadly. I still love my city though!

Indiana is the last state to get new fashion, movies, trends or anything for that matter. If you want something new you have to go to Chicago to get it or see it. Been here all my life and we are the most backward state in the union.

We are the crossroads of America because nobody cares about the corn.

Yesss! My home state. Someone please tell these people that Southern Indiana does not qualify as "the south".
