The following is the list of islands of North Dakota. North Dakota is a landlocked state in the Upper Midwest. Land takes up 68,994 sq mi (178,690 km²), whereas water accounts for 1,697.52 sq mi (4,396.6 km²).^[1] With only 2.4% of the state being water, there are few lakes for islands to be found. Grassland and farm fields cover most of North Dakota, where the average elevation is 1,900 feet (580 m) above sea level. North Dakota has few named islands due to the lack of water bodies. Most islands are found in large reservoirs or in the Missouri River. Following the damming of the Missouri River, some islands were flooded and ceased to exist. They are still listed, but as historical only.^[2] There are other islands in North Dakota, however many are unnamed.
