It has a 600-mile (970-km) coastline along the Bay of Bengal.

The state is named after the Andhra people, who have lived in the region since ancient times and have developed their own language, Telugu. Andhra Pradesh was established in its current form in 1956 to meet the demand for a separate state by the Andhra people.
