The United States and its states, sentence 4

The country is so wide that it has several time zones: when it is 9 o'clock in the morning in New York, it is only 6 o'clock in Los Angeles, because the Sun rises in the east first.

Who acts: country, Sun · What happens: be, have, rise · To what, where: several time zones, 9 o'clock, 6 o'clock, Los, east
