| | Texas Panhandle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | The Texas Panhandle is a region of the state of Texas consisting of the northernmost 26 counties in the state. | | | The panhandle is a rectangular area bordered by the state of New Mexico to the west and the state of Oklahoma to the north and east. | | | Because the Act of Admission of Texas into the Union allows the state to divide itself, a bill was introduced to the Texas legislature in 1915 in order to create a State of Jefferson, made up of the Texas Panhandle. |
