(詳細はoutline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to the U.S. state of Kansas: Kansas – U.S. state located in the Midwestern United States.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Census.gov )〕 It is named after the Kansas River which flows through it, which in turn was named after the Kansa Native American tribe, which inhabited the area.〔John Koontz, p.c.〕 The tribe's name (natively ''kką:ze'') is often said to mean "people of the wind" or "people of the south wind," although this was probably not the term's original meaning.〔Rankin, Robert. 2005.
