3. State Song arranged by Kathryn Chester I’ve been to every state we have, and I think I’m inclined to say that Rhody stole my heart: You can keep the forty-nine. Herring gulls that dot the sky, blue waves that paint the rocks, water rich with Neptune’s life, the boats that line the docks. I see the lighthouse flickering to help the sailors see. There’s a place for everyone: Rhode Island’s It for Me. Rhode Island, oh Rhode Island surrounded by the sea. Some people roam the earth for home; Rhode Island’s It for Me. I love the fresh October days, the buzz on College Hill, art that moves an eye to tear, a jewelers special skill. Icicles refract the sun, snow falling gracefully.

Rhode Island nickname Rhode Island's official nickname is "The Ocean State," a reference to the state's geography, since Rhode Island has several large bays and inlets that amount to about 30% of its total area. Its land area is 1,045 square miles (2706 km 2 ), but its total area is significantly larger (in the United States, all seawater and ocean floors that are less than 12 nautical miles from land belong to the Federal Government).

9. Major Industries and Export. For a while, Rhode Island was one of the leaders in textiles. However, with the Great Depression, most textile factories relocated to southern US states. The textile industry still constitutes a part of the Rhode Island economy, but does not have the same power that it once had.textilesGreat Depression Other important industries in Rhode Island's past included toolmaking, costume jewelry and silverware. An interesting by-product of Rhode Island's industrial history is the amount of abandoned factories - many of them now being used for low-income housing, elderly housing, condominiums, museums, and offices. costume jewelrysilverware headquarters of Citizens Financial Group, the 14th largest bank in the United States, is located in Providence.
