Welcome to Illinois, the Land of Lincoln, and the heart of America. Illinois prides itself on both its central location and its representation as the cultural center of the country, a sample of America. The state certainly does have everything from small towns and peaceful farms to big cities and industrial might. Illinois is one of the leading producers of corn and soybeans, but it is also the home to one of the world's busiest airports and towering skyscrapers.
With access to the Great Lakes and the Mississippi River and its central location within the states, Illinois is a natural center for transportation. In fact, the state has the greatest concentration of land, water, and air transportation facilities in the entire world.
