Are the states individually defined in the United States. Several answers say that they are not, but your description says that they are.

Paula, they are not individualy defined. The globe is very nice and we bought it beside not defining the different States since we have the US map.

I called my 8 year old grandson who lives 1100 miles away and asked him. He says they are.

The individual states are NOT defined. I supplemented with a wooden Melissa and Doug US puzzle and two great books: Where Do I Live? and There's a Map on My Lap.

The US states and Canadian provinces are outlined in dotted silver lines and all labeled with full names, although some of the smaller states (Vermont, New Hampshire, etc.) are labeled with their abbreviation. All countries are labeled with their full names, even small island nations, and many European countries and a few Asian ones also have translated names in parentheses. The print overall is very small, more the size of a globe than of a poster map. All print in silver except where it's written on the silver oceans, there it is black.

sorry. gave them away, so don't have them handy, but the other answer looks spot on.

The older ones were. I had to replace mine and low and behold it says USA on it. So I guess the answer is USA.

The puzzle pieces are each individual state. The New England states are a little confusing because they are separate state pieces but not marked on the actual piece, they are labeled on the board. (So for example you have one of the smaller states like Vermont and it is just this little green piece with an arrow to the side of the map that says Vermont. ) All the larger states are labeled and include a picture of something signature from that state. Also, when a piece is lifted it reveals the capital of that state on the board beneath. Also, on the very back of the puzzle the states are listed alphabetically with each state bird, capital, population, size of the state, flower and motto. Hope this helps! :)

Yes, they are. There are some major cities shown, too. The outlining of the states is with dotted lines and is a little hard to see, but it is definitely there.

I was going to answer your question, but found that you have already received the correct answer from several others. GO USA!!! God bless you. :)

My device indicates maps for CN NOrth AMerica (Lower 49 States). When I try to find the state of Hawaii, it finds it but when I try to find Alaska it doesn't find it. My conclusion is the answer to your question is no.

Not really, it is a stylized, map not really accurate. Generally it does put the destinations okay relative to one another, but the distances are not to scale and countries and city names are as they were pre-WWI around 1910-12.

That's correct. The hard part is that some of the new england states that are combined together also don't have the names on them b/c they're so small. But so far, this is the best state puzzle I've found.

I don't know, I live in Utah. But, I would think it is...they are all pretty standardized now.

A sub-question: How does stuff get to Hawaii, the Aleutians, Sanibel, The Keys, Guam...? Why Catalina, particularly? It just seems a bit eccentric, given all the other islands in the Union.

Yes, this version does NOT include a state. See the other version that includes state.

Yes. All of the states in the United States, as well as the Canadian provinces, are labeled.

They are almost all individual states, even some of the small New England states... I think there was one piece that had Rhode Island, Delaware, etc. together. It's a pretty good puzzle, but not quiiiite as good as the one I had as a child. I would say that it is worth the price I paid.

According to my wife they do. She sent it to my Granddaughter in New Mexico, so I can't verify it. I live in Tennessee.

Yes. But some are together. (Bahamas is one) The map is pretty good overall you should definitely get it!
