NothingIsEverything 1,248 May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 So, as the title goes, what has your state/country provided that contributed to the world? It can be something historical, factual, or something humorous. With me, being from Virginia, my state's greatest contribution is Lamb of God. Being from Richmond, they are one of my favorite bands of all time and one of the pioneers of new American metal. 1 Made by my wonderful boyfriend Kyoshi <3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snow Frostflame 3,568 May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 Aside from having one of the fastest growing cities, Arizona provides copper, and heatstroke to tourists who don't realize summer in Arizona is literally hell on earth. Oh and a national park every American has heard of. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meson Bolt 2,648 May 25, 2018 Share May 25, 2018 Well, specifically one that applies to me. Since I enlisted into the Army in Texas, I'm qualified for the Hazlewood Act, which gives me, my (future) spouse, and my (future) children up to 150 hours of tuition exemption for most colleges in the state. Which is pretty darn nice, actually, since it stacks with my GI bill that I got for enlisting in the first place. 1 Your family is who you make it out to be.

Envy 6,169 May 26, 2018 Share May 26, 2018 Oklahoma contributed um... uh... well... to Country music? Yuck. We're better of without that and Oklahoma altogether, to be honest. I suppose David Gates of the band 'Bread' - one of my top favorite Soft Rock groups - came from the state, and that's neat. I've never really listened to his solo work, though.
