And "Kansas" is also in the name "Arkansas".


The names of the states actually have completely different origins.

It would make total sense that they would be pronounced differently.

While that may be, you can see where the question comes from since only 2 letters at the start differentiate them.

Also, if you break it down, we do have words from this:

ark - a type of boat
Kansas - a state in the US
