A compact state has a minimum frontier to defend, and generally roads and railways are relatively simple to provide. [6] An elongated or attenuated state is much longer in one direction than the other. [2] Norway and Chile are examples of elongated states. [1] Defense and transportation can be more difficult in an elongated state. [6]
In geometry, the gyroelongated pentagonal rotunda is one of the Johnson solids (J 25).As the name suggests, it can be constructed by gyroelongating a pentagonal rotunda (J 6) by attaching a decagonal antiprism to its base.
Rotating one of the pentagonal cupolae (J 5) through 36 degrees before inserting the prism yields an elongated pentagonal orthobicupola (J 38). A Johnson solid is one of 92 strictly convex polyhedra that is composed of regular polygon faces but are not uniform polyhedra (that is, they are not Platonic solids, Archimedean solids, prisms, or ...

In nuclear physics, hyperdeformation is theoretically predicted states of an atomic nucleus with an extremely elongated shape and a very high angular momentum. Less elongated states, superdeformation, have been well observed, but the experimental evidence for hyperdeformation is more limited. Hyperdeformed states correspond to an axis ratio of 3:1.
