 Florida
is the most south-eastern state in the United
States of America. Known as "The Sunshine
State", it became a popular winter destination
for the well-to-do from colder climates over a
century ago, and has gained ever greater
popularity since.
 Its roots in agriculture are
still present, with oranges being a chief
export. The capital of Florida is Tallahassee,
located in the "Big Bend" area of the Florida
Panhandle.

Apalachicola |
|
Apalachicola" comes from the Apalachicola tribe
and is a combination of Hitchiti Indian words "apalahchi,"
meaning "on the other side," and "okli," meaning
"people". In original reference to the
settlement, it probably meant "people on the
other side of the river." Many inhabitants of
Apalachicola, however, choose to translate the
name of their town as "land of the friendly
people." |
