Maryland USA
US State of
Maryland
 Maryland,
one of the Middle Atlantic states of the United States.
Maryland is bounded by Delaware and the Atlantic Ocean (E), the
District of Columbia (S), Virginia and West Virginia (S, W) and Pennsylvania
(N).
Maryland is a state of the United States, one of the South
Atlantic States (considered part of the Mid-Atlantic States and sometimes part
of the Northeast).
Its U.S. postal abbreviation is
MD. Its Associated Press abbreviation
is Md.
Maryland was one of the thirteen colonies that revolted against
British rule in the American Revolution.
A seaboard state, E Maryland is divided by Chesapeake Bay, which
runs almost to the northern border; thus the region of Maryland called the
Eastern Shore is separated from the main part of the state and is dominated by
the bay. For the most part, the erratic course of the Potomac River separates
the main part of Maryland from Virginia (to the south) and the long, narrow
western handle from West Virginia (to the south and west). The District of
Columbia cuts a rectangular indentation into the state just below the falls of
the Potomac.
The main part of the state is divided by the fall line, which
runs between the upper end of Chesapeake Bay and Washington, D.C.; to the north
and west is the rolling Piedmont, rising to the Blue Ridge and to the
Pennsylvania hills.
Annapolis, with its
well-preserved Colonial architecture and 18th-century waterfront, is the
Maryland state capital; it is also the site of the U.S. Naval Academy.
Baltimore, with a large percentage of the
state's population, is the dominant metropolis.
