Ohio. It has more major cities and is topographically far more interesting than Indiana. Ohio has the typical Midwest landscape in the western half of the state combined with the Ohio valley and the Allegheny and Appalachian foothills in most of the Eastern half of the state.
Tough choice.... Both are very nice states. I dont think i can pick one, they are about tied. The rock n roll hall of fame, and pro football hall of fame might give Ohio a slight edge though.
Ohio is a very geographically diverse state with much history. It is the meeting grounds of many regions.
The western part of the state resembles eastern plains, the NE part of the state resembles other Great Lakes regions with Lake Erie and looks like parts of upstate NY or Pennsylvania.
The SE part of the state is very similar to western Pennsylvania with Appalachian mountains and smaller previous democrat coal mining towns.
The NW part of the state has more in common with southern Michigan with its car manufacturing past.
The central part of the state represents new modern development with the Columbus city and metro.
the SE region is representative of a conservative past and has rolling hills that rest the many neighborhoods of Cincinnati.
Ohio is also one of the first states to have 7 urban metros in one state. Today other states do but Ohio was one of the first to urbanize.
Indiana just cannot compete with this diversity and history. The only thing comparable about Indiana and Ohio would be Indianapolis, IN and Columbus, OH (they are more comparable cities but it stops there.)
