Washington

État du nord-ouest des États-Unis, l'État de Washington a une superficie de 176.617 km², une population de 4.867.000 habitants, et sa capitale est Olympia.

La chaîne côtière est une montagne jeune : elle culmine au mont Olympus (2424 m).

La chaîne des Cascades est un alignement de volcans récents dont plusieurs dépassent 3000 m (le mont Rainier culmine à 4392 m), certains encore actifs (éruption du Saint Helens en 1980) ; elle a 318 glaciers grands et petits, 130 lacs, une profusion de cirques alpins et de chutes d'eau.

À l'est de l'État se trouve un plateau volcanique où s'encaissent la vallée de la Columbia et les vallées affluentes (Snake, Spokane).

Les principales villes : Spokane (180.000 habitants, 360.000 pour l'agglomération), Tacoma (160.000 habitants) et surtout l'agglomération de Seattle (2.220.000 habitants), forte de la présence de Boeing et de Microsoft. Olympia est un modeste chef-lieu de 35.000 habitants.
