With the ultimate goal of pairing up every US county with a unique Chinese county for prayer, a few states have to be "subdivided" so that the county numbers match. In the case of Missouri, roughly the western 1/3 of the state is matched up with Ningxia, while the eastern 2/3 are matched up with Guizhou for prayer. Both Guizhou and Ningxia are mostly rural, and very hilly/mountainous provinces in central China. The precise division of counties will come later, when we have some help from folks in Missouri to work out the details!
