The Commonwealth of Kentucky is a state located in the Southern United States, although it is sometimes included, geographically, in the Midwest. Originally a part of the Commonwealth of Virginia, in 1792 it became the 15th state to join the Union. Kentucky is the 37th largest state in terms of land area, and ranks 26th in population.
Kentucky's largest cities and most of the fast growing counties are concentrated in what is referred to as the Golden Triangle, framed by Louisville, Lexington and the suburban Northern Kentucky region. The capital is Frankfort and the largest city is Louisville.
Kentucky is known as the "Bluegrass State," a nickname based on the fact that bluegrass is present in many of the lawns and pastures throughout the state. Kentucky is well known for thoroughbred horses, horse racing, local bourbon whisky distilleries, bluegrass music, coal and college basketball.
