Why Do So Many American 🇺🇲 States Have Panhandles? 🍳 #shorts A panhandle is a thin piece of land stretching from one state into another, like a pan's handle.
Other countries like Namibia, Argentina, and India also have panhandles.
There are 10 panhandles in nine states: Texas, West Virginia (which has 2), Alaska, Florida,
Connecticut, Idaho, Nebraska, Maryland, and Oklahoma.
Though they might not look great on maps, panhandles often have strategic or historical
reasons. They could show old territorial claims or deals made when states joined the Union.
Panhandles can affect local identity and the economy. For example, Maryland's panhandle has
unique cultural and economic traits and even had secession attempts in the past.
