conceptual state and its capitol. To give a general idea of where my state is located, it is on the west coast and is the northern part of California and also includes the southern portion of Oregon. I have included a map with the state’s border and its neighbors’ borders in the appendix section at the end of the paper. I chose to name my state RedWood, this comes from the sequoia trees that grow within the state’s borders in abundance. The people that live in this state I’ve created…

The field trip to the Lava Beds National Monument would be a good place to go. It is near the California and Oregon state boarder and is California's best kept secret.
