4. Here's a big one: Without Iowa, there would most likely be a crisis-level shortage on bacon, as Iowa produces more pork than any other state in the country.
13. Of course, probably the biggest thing you would notice missing is the computer! If there was no Iowa, there would be no computers, and we would basically have reverted to being cavemen by now.
