"Capture the Flag
The Southwest has perhaps been ruled over by more than any other area. Texas alone has had six different national flags fly in the State - France, Spain, Mexico, the Republic of Texas, the Confederate States of America, and the United States of America all once held power in Texas.",
"Dispersed Population
Although the Southwest is less densely populated than neighboring areas it still holds some large cities. Houston, Phoenix, San Antonio, and Dallas are all in the top ten most populated U.S. cities.",
"How's your Spanish?
Aside from the Mid-Atlantic, the Southwest may be the most culturally diverse area in the country. In fact, New Mexico's State Constitution officially states that New Mexico is a bilingual state.",
"City Folk?
Although the Southwest has some large cities it is sparsely populated. Texas, for example, is the second largest state and has some 20 million people but about half of those live in the Dallas–Fort Worth or Houston metropolitan areas.",
"Land Rush!
The Southwest is well known for its historical land runs. Oklahoma had the famous Land Rush of 1889 where its population increased by 50,000 in one day. On September 16, 1893 Oklahoma also saw the Cherokee Strip Land Run, which was the largest land run in U.S. history."];
