Nebraska is a state located on the Great Plains of the Midwestern United States. Nebraska gets its name from a Chiwere word meaning "flat water," after the Platte River that flows through the state.
Once considered part of the Great American Desert, it is now a leading farming and ranching state. Nebraskans are sometimes colloquially referred to as "Cornhuskers" (which is derived from the state nickname).
