The Mississippi River rises in northern Minnesota and flows southward through Minnesota and then becomes the border for 9 U.S. states. Wisconsin, Illinois, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi are along the east side of the Mississippi River. Iowa, Missouri, and Arkansas are along its west side. The river serves as the border between Louisiana and Mississippi before turning west and flowing through Louisiana to the Mississippi River Delta at the Gulf of Mexico.
