Seemingly innocent, nestled between the foothills of the
Ozarks and the Rio Grande, Montana is a deceptively dangerous
land. Still stalked by llamas and subject to flash fogs,
many travellers have been eaten in their tents and scarred
by falling arches.
Constructed mostly in the baroque style, with elements of
neo-classicism etched on the sides, the provincial cities
of Boise, Billings, and Veronica make a fine setting for
the state's five commercial enterprises, but none equals
the pre-columbian grandeur of the capital Loch Ness, where
the region's finest pianos are tuned.
The principal exports of Montana are: hypodermic needles,
chaffinches, horns tuned to G minor, ball-gowns, antihistamines,
portcullisses, orang utans, detective stories, stalagmites,
megaphones, barrel organs, verb tables, and bread slicers.
One of the 50 states of North America.
