Maryland: A “Star-Spangled” State

Friday, 24 May, 2006 0

The distance between Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. is less than 150 miles, and it is perhaps tempting to hop on I-95 and rush from one to the other but that would mean passing up the numerous treasures that are found in the state of Maryland.

Three centuries of history and landmarks that represent the Revolution, Civil War, the War of 1812, and the birthplace of our national anthem are all found in this compact state.

Maryland incorporates an area of just 10,000 square miles and extends from the Atlantic Ocean to the Appalachian Mountains. With the magnificent Chesapeake Bay at its heart and the Atlantic Ocean its eastern boundary, Maryland is all about water. Baltimore is a major port, Annapolis is home to the U.S. Naval Academy and the Chesapeake (which comes from a Native American word meaning “great shellfish bay”) provides the ingredients for Maryland’s world-famous crab cakes.
