There's so much to discover about Idaho, but how many facts do you know about the state?

If you've ever tried looking up Idaho fun facts and trivia, you've probably realized that the definition of "fun" for most of the internet is just a textbook list of official state icons, flora, and fauna. Fortunately, our curiosity took us one step further. Whether you love random facts as much as we do, have always wondered what Idaho's GDP would equal in rubles, or are simply curious what sort of non-boring facts are discoverable if you search the depths of the internet hard enough, this list is for you. Without further ado, we present an impressive list of little-known Idaho fun facts.

1. Idaho is NOT a tornado-free zone.

Most people believe that Idaho is safe from these swirling vortexes, but that isn't the case. Every year, a dozen or so funnels touch the ground but don't cause enough damage to warrant state-wide attention.

2. The Gem State is bigger than all of New England combined (Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island).

Idaho is truly vast. And every time you catch a sunset, the beautiful vastness of Idaho's landscape is clear.

3. Our combined wilderness is over 4.7 million acres, which is greater than the US's three smallest states combined.

The total land area of Rhode Island, Delaware, and Connecticut is collectively smaller than our state's combined wild, roadless areas.

4. Idaho has the most neutral dialect of any state in the country.

With no discernible accent and no state-specific language quirks, we're the testing ground for nearly every survey and language product on the market. We're also telemarketers central, which is ironic because...

5. Idahoans are ranked as one of the states most known for "cursing like a sailor."

This stat came from a nationwide survey where Idahoans were likely to launch into naughty language without provocation or hesitation.

6. Idaho drinks more wine per person than any other state in the country.

Full disclosure: Statistics go back and forth between D.C. and Idaho as the #1 consumer. But since Washington D.C. isn't technically its own state, Idaho definitely comes out on top. Learn more about some of the best wineries in Idaho.

7. The total length of Idaho's rivers and waterways (over 107,000 miles) could stretch across the U.S. thirty-eight times.

That's a lot of water. Yet, Idaho is also the 5th driest state in the country during the summer.

8. Idaho's average per-city population (7,257) is double the amount of female prisoners in Oklahoma.

Random tidbit for your next party.

9. Idaho's Canadian border is less than 800 football fields long.

10. The state + capital spelling with the fewest number of letters possible? Boise, Idaho.

So, stick that little nugget of knowledge in your hat for future reference.

11. Idaho has the cheapest cigarette prices in the country.

Once a fashionable "accessory," cigarettes are not nearly as popular as they once were. But for those with a habit, apparently Idaho is the place to go to stock up.

12. Idaho has more OSHA safety violations per capita than any other state.

Idaho is currently in a housing boom thanks to the incoming hordes of -- er, increase in traffic from neighboring states. All those people means the construction industry is under a great deal of pressure, and cutting a few too many corners to keep its workers truly safe. Idaho has paid some hefty fines over the last two years as a result.

These Idaho fun facts may not win you any awards with your old history professor, but knowledge is knowledge! Were you aware of any of these facts prior to checking out the list? We'd love to hear any other interesting facts you have hiding up your sleeve - just share them in the comments section.
