Rhode Island, the Ocean State, is the smallest U.S. State (in land size), but played a gigantic role in the building of America, especially in its colonial history and industrial revolution. Closely associated with the sea, many vacation here for its boating, fishing and history. So much history has occurred in this state that it has one of the nation's largest concentrations of historic landmarks.
Although this state is rooted in American History, it has many cutting edge industries that keep Diesel Mechanics in demand. Rhode Island has a thriving manufacturing sector which includes, costume jewelry, fabricated metal products, electrical equipment, machinery, shipbuilding and boatbuilding. Rhode Island also has solid agricultural base which produces nursery stock, vegetables, dairy product and eggs.
