Washington (engl. Aussprache [ˈwɒʃɪŋtən] ) ist ein Bundesstaat der Vereinigten Staaten von Amerika. Er liegt im Nordwesten der USA an der Küste des Pazifischen Ozeans, nördlich von Oregon, westlich von Idaho und südlich von British Columbia in Kanada. Gemessen an seiner Fläche steht Washington unter den US-Bundesstaaten mit 184.665 Quadratkilometern an 18. Stelle, gemessen an seiner Bevölkerung von 7.705.281 Einwohnern an 13. Stelle (Stand 2020). Der Großteil der Bevölkerung konzentriert sich rund um den Puget Sound, eine etwa 150 km lange, inselreiche und weitverzweigte Bucht im Westen des Staates, an der auch die Hauptstadt Olympia sowie die mit Abstand größte Stadt Seattle liegen. Der Staat wurde nach dem ersten US-Präsidenten, George Washington, benannt und als 42. Staat im Jahr 1889 in die Vereinigten Staaten aufgenommen. Aufgrund der Vielzahl von Nadelbäumen trägt der Staat den Spitznamen Evergreen State (deutsch Immergrüner Staat). Um den Bundesstaat von der ebenfalls nach George Washington benannten, an der Ostküste befindlichen Hauptstadt der USA, Washington, D.C., abzugrenzen, wird für den Staat oft die Bezeichnung Washington State verwendet.
