Each state had to agree on the boundaries, and as with all of human history they were quite possessive and possibly greedy. Thats why in the middle of the Mojave Desert the lines are all clean and uniform: nobody was willing to fight over the middle of the Mojave Desert.
That’s Oklahoma and everyone in Texas hates it. Anyone who says otherwise is an escaped Oklahoman and the authorities need to be alerted so they can be returned to their isolation
It’s because if Texas claimed territory above where the northern border currently is, they wouldn’t have been allowed to join the Union as a slave state.

I like how that one state has a thin slice that stops Texas from touching the two above it.

Really, that’s just OK taking one for the team. We should encourage their policy of Texas Isolation until they are the only bordering state.
The old Oklahoma hug.
