Texas: The State That's Basically a Country
 |
| How Big Was The Country Of Texas |
Bigger Than Your Ego
Let’s talk about Texas. Not the country music, the cowboy hats, or the barbecue (although those are all amazing). Let's talk about its size. Because, let's face it, Texas is so big, it’s practically a country.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. "Texas? Big? No way, dude." But hold your horses, city slicker. Texas is not just big; it's enormous. It's like someone took a ruler, got really excited, and just kept drawing. It's bigger than Poland, the United Kingdom, and Ireland combined. Yeah, you read that right.
QuickTip: Read section by section for better flow.
Could Texas Be a Country?
Imagine this: Texas secedes from the US and becomes its own country. It would be the 39th largest country in the world. That’s right, bigger than countries with actual governments, armies, and diplomatic relations. Texas would be like, "Hey world, we're here, we're big, and we've got really good barbecue."
QuickTip: Highlight useful points as you read.

But seriously, the size of Texas is mind-boggling. You could drive for hours and still be in Texas. You could fit several states inside of it. You could probably even fit a small country or two. It's like the state is playing a practical joke on everyone.
Tip: Use the structure of the text to guide you.
How Big is Too Big?
So, how big is Texas, really? Well, it's about 268,596 square miles. But numbers are boring. Let's put it this way: If you wanted to drive across Texas at a steady 60 mph, it would take you about 20 hours. Twenty hours! That's enough time to watch every season of Friends, twice.
Reminder: Reading twice often makes things clearer.
