阿肯色州 (Arkansas -- AR) 是美国东南7州的一个州。北接密苏里州，西界俄克拉何马州，南邻路易斯安那州，西南与得克萨斯州接壤，东隔密西西比河与田纳西州和密西西比州相望。面积137539平方公里，在50州内列第29位。人口2,810,872（2006），在50州内列第33位。首府小石城 (Little Rock)。 州名来自印第安语，原为夸保族、奥萨格族、卡多族、切罗基族和乔克托族印地安人居住地。16、17世纪，西班牙和法国探险家先后来到这里。1686年法国人亨利· 德通蒂在阿肯色河下游建立第一个白人殖民点。1803年根据路易斯安那购买协议，归美国所有。1836年加入联邦，为美国第25个州。1861年南北战争时期退出联邦，1868年重新加入联邦。 该州的历史与南方各州相似：早先单产棉花，蓄过黑奴，参加过南部同盟，种族主义盛行，经济长期落后。但二战以后，阿肯色州的条件有了相当的改善。为了吸引外来投资办厂，除了采取一些具体措施外，1953年该州还决定把州别名正式确定为“机会之地”。其实，在这个州里，不仅企业有机会大展宏图，能干的个人也有机会脱颖而出，克林顿就是一个实例。这位阿肯色州的贫寒子弟，一无财产，二无背景，全凭自己的能力赢得全州选民的拥护，32岁当选为州长，挑起全州的大梁。46岁时又入主白宫，成为美国总统。他的成功无疑是“机会之地”的一个最好的注脚。
