Adding the prefix -inter to the word state creates a new word that means "between states".

Step-by-step explanation:

The concept of adding the prefix "inter" has a Latin ancestry. The prefix was used to denote an in-between state or an internal state in between things or groups.

The word interstate highlights the connection between two lands or federations either within the same country or within two different nations.
