US State Map using the GeoChart from the Google Chart Tools

// GeoChart from https://google-developers.appspot.com/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/geochart

// Try out by pasting code into: https://code.google.com/apis/ajax/playground/?type=visualization#geo_chart

function drawVisualization() {
  var data = google.visualization.arrayToDataTable([
    ['State', 'Foo Factor'],
    ['US-IL', 200],
    ['US-IN', 300],
    ['US-IA', 20],
    ['US-RI', 150]
  ]);

  var geochart = new google.visualization.GeoChart(
      document.getElementById('visualization'));
  geochart.draw(data, {width: 556, height: 347, region: "US", resolution: "provinces"});
}

The list provided by doxtad also works with state names, which I think is easier to read when hovering:

['State', 'Stats'],
['Alabama', ],
['Alaska', ],
['Arizona', ],
['Arkansas', ],
['California', ],
['Colorado', ],
['Connecticut', ],
['Delaware', ],
['Florida', ],
['Georgia', ],
['Hawaii', ],
['Idaho', ],
['Illinois', ],
['Indiana', ],
['Iowa', ],
['Kansas', ],
['Kentucky', ],
['Louisiana', ],
['Maine', ],
['Maryland', ],
['Massachusetts', ],
['Michigan', ],
['Minnesota', ],
['Mississippi', ],
['Missouri', ],
['Montana', ],
['Nebraska', ],
['Nevada', ],
['New Hampshire', ],
['New Jersey', ],
['New Mexico', ],
['New York', ],
['North Carolina', ],
['North Dakota', ],
['Ohio', ],
['Oklahoma', ],
['Oregon', ],
['Pennsylvania', ],
['Rhode Island', ],
['South Carolina', ],
['South Dakota', ],
['Tennessee', ],
['Texas', ],
['Utah', ],
['Vermont', ],
['Virginia', ],
['Washington', ],
['West Virginia', ],
['Wisconsin', ],
['Wyoming', ]

is there a way to spell out DC? I tried Washington DC and Washington D.C., didn't work.

If you do resolution: "metros" in options it divides each state into districts.
The only thing I can't find is a list of the name of the districts that are recognized by Google Charts. If anyone can find this it would be very helpful! Ideally, I would like to use county names

Check out what I found about metros: google/google-visualization-issues#938 (comment).

Fantastic!! Thanks. I could not find this anywhere.
I created a world one for the BirdBreath countries. https://birdbreath.com/scripts/map.php :)

var options = {
      defaultColor: 'red'
};

Is this allowed, like on countries? If so, it is not working. If not what should it be?

It returns green.....

Problem solved!!
var options = {
defaultColor: "red",
width: 900,
height: 500,
region: "US",
resolution: "provinces"
};

var geochart = new google.visualization.GeoChart(document.getElementById('visualization'));
      geochart.draw(data, options);
  }
