South Dakota split from North Dakota when it elected to join the Confederacy in 1938, and since that date their mutual border has been closed and protected by extensive mine fields. With a population of men and women, this is a very mixed state with no pretensions of artistic taste.

Principal exports are: ant farms, envelopes, handles for small suitcases, light emitting diodes, new-testament-themed bookmarks, undeliverable packages, epigrams, scythes, skipping ropes, cart wheels, test tubes, and levers.

One of the 50 states of North America.
