Ordering Missouri, Alabama, Michigan, Wyoming: Southernmost to Northernmost

Ranked by latitude of geographic center (approximate):

1. Alabama — Center ~32.8°N (southernmost)
2. Missouri — Center ~38.5°N
3. Michigan — Center ~43.5°N (Lower Peninsula pulls avg south; UP extends to 48°N)
4. Wyoming — Center ~43.0°N but northern border 45°N; overall farther north than Michigan's population center

Clarification

By southernmost point: Alabama (30.2°N) → Missouri (36.0°N) → Michigan (41.7°N) → Wyoming (41.0°N).
By northernmost point: Wyoming (45.0°N) > Michigan (48.3°N at UP tip) > Missouri (40.6°N) > Alabama (35.0°N).

The prompt likely intends population-weighted centroid or capital city latitude:

• Montgomery, AL: 32.4°N
• Jefferson City, MO: 38.6°N
• Lansing, MI: 42.7°N
• Cheyenne, WY: 41.1°N

Order by capital latitude (south→north): Alabama → Missouri → Wyoming → Michigan.

Order by state centroid (south→north): Alabama → Missouri → Wyoming → Michigan.

Wyoming's centroid is north of Missouri's but south of Michigan's; however, Michigan's UP extends farther north than Wyoming. For "farthest north" as a state, Michigan > Wyoming.

Most reasonable answer (south→north by overall extent): Alabama, Missouri, Wyoming, Michigan.
