But the very well-known and ravishing US National Park is situated in the state of Wyoming – it is the Yellowstone National Park which together with the Grand Teton Park attracts millions of tourists a year And the Grand Canyon of the Colorado river in the national park in Arizona is used to be one of the most magnificent temples of nature, the geological textbook of the ground.
The Pacific Coast in California is well-known too. Los Angeles, Hollywood, San Francisco, the famous cities, the renowned universities, the large canning factories, the fertile soil – all this is attractive so much up to the present, all this formed from California the most populous and the most prosperous US state.
Alaska which does not form one whole with the other states with the US, is rich in natural resources , in oil including. It is the largest and the least settled state of the US. Approximately half a million inhabitants are spread over one and half million square kilometers.

The another thing with which is civilisation dealing is
System of government: Organisation of the federal government – the president is chosen in national election and he is elected for four years. He may be elected only one time once more. To qualify to election you must be born american citizen, you have to be at least 35 years old. A president earns 200 000 dollars a year but he must pay an income tax. But on the other hand he becomes 100 000 for travel and another 20 000 for official entertainment. After he ie elected he move with his family to the Whit House to Washington. There he will be living for the time hi is president. The president in US is the head of government. He must name his ministers – called secretars, who form the cabinet. Every secretar has his own department for which he is responsible. The cabinet must create their programme which must be introduced to Senate. While the president is an executive branch, the Congress is a legislative branch The Senate is the one of two parts of the Congress because the Congress consists of two houses. The second is the House of Representatives and has 435 members -– according to the number of inhabitants of the state. Senate has 100 members, every state has its 2 senators. The president can veto a proposal, but his veto can be over roll by 2/3 of Congress. In the US there are two major political parties : the democratic and the republican. The first is left and the second is national. That means the democrats want to do social changes, better life for people, more money for school system, health care etc., the republicans want to have strong government, strong and powerful state. These two parties compete in elections. The last thing which I want to mention, that are some key concepts which you must know and know what they mean, when you want to talk about American studies.
