It is by farthe most populous state in the U.S., aswell as the most physically diverse, withthe highest and the lowest points in thelower 48 states located within 150 milesof each other. If California were anindependent nation, it would have the fifth largest economy in the world (after the rest of the U.S., Japan, Germany, and Britain; see economy of California).
