 Yes, it is the second largest state in the United States by both area population. There is about 27 million people live there. It became the 28th state in the United States in 1845. 
 Wow, I didn't know Texas was that big. What about its geography? 
 Oligocene volcanic rocks are found in far west Texas in the Big Bend area. 
 Interesting... Can you tell me more? 
 Notable extremes range from East Texas which is often considered an extension of the Deep South, to Far West Texas which is generally acknowledged to be part of the interior Southwest. 
 What about its transportation? 
 Since it is located centrally in North America the state is an important transportation hub. The TxDOT is the Texas Department of Transportation and it maintains the state's immense highway system, regulates aviation, and public transportation systems. 
 Does Texas have several highways? 
 Texas has compensated by building both America's largest highway and railway systems in length.
