The next state up will be South Carolina. South Carolinians, please respond to this comment with any information you'd like to include about your home state!
South Carolina produces about twice as many peaches annually as the alleged Peach State next door, Georgia.
I’m South Carolinian, our state is probably the worst after West Virginia 👀
I do not live in SC but when I went to Myrtle Beach, it seemed to be most northern tourists (like me) but this year after lockdown Im going again to Myrtle and Charleston. The largest city is columbia, but i heard bad things about the area that arent coastline
@@A.Mayflower127 gotta nice beach tho
No I don’t live in South Carolina but the state is sooooooo empty or rural well atleast on the I-95 corridor it is I swear it takes 3 hrs to get through there and I only see trees there’s no service or nothing so I don’t know how they live there
I'm not from there, but I think Maryland has the coolest flag in the country!
Definitely the prettiest!❤
The flag has a confederate symbol on it
@@brandonmurphy4657 Technically yes, but I feel like it doesn't have that connotation to most people who see and use the flag now, so in my opinion it's not bad. That's just me though.
We do 😁
Thank you!!
From someone who's lived in Maryland almost all my life I can tell you this is the most comprehensive video I've ever seen on my home state. Well done!
For as much American history involves us, I’m often baffled at how entirely overlooked MD is, as if it could be defined entirely by Baltimore.
Well I think Daniel is right
Except the being a part of the south. Everyone here claims to be southern until it’s time to vote. I hate it here bc of all the gun laws and they allow abortion yeah most southerners are more republican
@@toml9736yea it's pretty much a mish mash of demies and repubies except for the southern regions (repub) and the DC suburbs (demi)
@@thanoscube8573 kinda it is kinds split but they def lean a little more to the left. I went to court for a gun charge a few years ago and we overheard even cops saying these gun laws are getting ridiculous, they recently just legalized weed which im fine with lol but most the laws point me towards the left its just there’s a few more republicans than most liberal states which just makes them take forever to pass any less like again with the weed last time they voted on it they got denied bc republican voters. Im just split bc both sides have things i want. The right loves guns and the left loves weed and i love guns and i love weed and they dont mix apparently
Old bay really is like crack here in Maryland lol
Don't forget J.O Spice. Made in Baltimore too. Great for ''blackening'' foods.
True story: tastes great on vanilla ice cream--kind of like spicy butter pecan.
Without a doubt! Still the only place I know of where restaurants serve vegetables covered in Old Bay- and it’s delicious!
Yes!! Love it!

Someone is giving my state some airtime? It's about damn time!
For real. Maryland often seems like the state the rest of the country forgot.
@@johnalden5821 it's true! I don't know how many times I have had to introduce Maryland to other citizens of the USA ☠
🙄
We love to see it
@@johnalden5821 yes it’s the reason some Marylanders say they are from dc
As a Marylander, I did not realize that the nickname “Old Line State” was named after an army in the Revolutionary War and not the Mason-Dixon Line.
Fellow Marylander here and same.
False
@@robertireland4589 It is true. The bodies of the Maryland regiment are buried under a Brooklyn NY, garage.
Also form Maryland and I thought the same
THIs IS -Sparta- MARYLAND!!!!
LOL
From a Pennsylvanian, big fist-bump to our southern neighbors
From a Marylander, big fist-bump back
I'm from W. Virginia a big fist bump from the west
@@cannedtuna6114 and another fist bump back
My wife is from Blue Bell PA, we're a mixed PA/MD marriage. She introduced me to tomato pies and I'm forever grateful. She's also the mother of my children and that's fine too I guess
Looking north to you neighbor!
i am international student from Pakistan and i live in belair MD. I love the weather and people on Maryland. I am proud to be living in Maryland after knowing the history of 300 soldiers fight .Huge Salute to Heroes
Here is a secret we can't say out loud: All Marylanders secretly think we should take Delaware.
Lol
We should
Delaware is to Maryland what Jan was to Marcia Brady 😂😂
I like Delaware tho
yes please don't say it out loud
Hot take: Maryland should annex Delaware and the part of Virginia on that peninsula
Jonny?
Lol yess
no no no no no no n o n o n o n o n o n o NO NO NO NO NO NO NOOOOOOOOoOooOooOOoOooOOoOooOoooOOooOooOooOOoOOoOooOOoOOoOoo
Yes!
And Washington d.c., people there have been living on our land rent free and complain about taxes. Bitch, you guys haven't been paying Maryland's oppressively high taxes so quit complaining!!!
We marylanders rock our flag like no other state.
@Christian Adams the British flag looks great so I’ll take it
Best flag in the USA!
Oh *HELL* yeah we do!
Before moving to Maryland, I always found the flag weird/didn't like it until living there and it's plastered everywhere. Now I know that's it's awesome, and probably the most repped state flag in the US.
Ahem…Texas.
As a Marylander, bravo hon. Obviously very well researched. Appreciate you for getting it right.
you coulda left out “as a marylander” and we would’ve gotten that from the “hon” haha
"Hon" XD
I’m born and raised in Maryland.
If you’re curious about what towns Harriet Tubman and Frederick Douglass are from:
Harriet Tubman is from Cambridge, MD
Frederick Douglass is from Cordova, MD
Eastern Shore...
Neither of those people existed.
Cambridge has a nice memorial to Harriet Tubman
If you are who I think you are, I graduated from High School with you haha
So few people know much about the eastern shore apart from the scene in wedding crashers.
As a lifelong native Marylander I enjoyed your video very much. Despite being aware of everything you reviewed I did not realize Maryland is considered sub tropic. I can confirm that summer in Western Md. Is sweltering because it's so humid. Great job on your video.
When the British sent diplomats to D.C. back in the 19th century, they gave their people bonuses to their salaries called "tropical weather pay." They lumped D.C. with places like Rio de Janeiro, Calcutta, Jamaica, Barbados, Kenya, the Bahamas and Bombay. LOL.
I live over on the eastern shore and it definitely feels more southern than central Maryland
I live in Western Maryland actually in and I tend to see us as Northern and half of the other people speak with a accent kind of mixed with northern and southern and we say a lot of Southern words but more of a northern dialect.. too close to West Virginia
Lol either on this side of the bridge or the other
I live on the eastern shore too. Very rural and country. Has it's own culture slightly different from the western shore
@@jasonvogue4487 I know right but we do have a state motto that should be changed to... If you can dream it we can tax it!
I love Eastern Shore, feels so peaceful and comfy everytime I go for a quick vacation.
As a life-long Marylander (all 56 years in Montgomery County), I wish to congratulate you on your excellent video! As someone who plans, Lord willing, to retire to Florida, I’m looking forward to your video on that state. Two additional factors about MD: those winters are increasingly less mild and more wet. Basically, months of rain and 38-48 degrees. My arthritis can’t take 5 months a year of this any more. Second factor about MD: it’s INCREDIBLY unfriendly to retirees. It’s very expensive to retire here. Which is sad, because it’s a wonderful place to live!
Gov Hogan is working to make it more retiree friendly tax wise.
@@amys5669 Tax wise, I wish he would work on making it more resident friendly in general, I might just remain if he does :)
@@amys5669 gov Hogan has made it impossible to stay. He has refused to enforce the laws regarding ADA, elder abuse and the services that are required for the needy. You would not know this if not affected by it. I built a business, provided a living to those who worked for my animal hospital, became disabled and am now driven out of md by hogans hidden policies.
People in MOCO are the problem why many things about our state suck!!!
@@mongo5392 how?
Thanks for such a wide-ranging and knowledgeable coverage of Maryland. You covered the history and the current realities with fairness and thoroughness and covered all the bases. Pretty much dead-on accurate. For such a small state, we are very diverse and filled with a lot of contradictions. So there are plenty of potential misunderstandings, but you did a good job with representing the state.
Hi John
Maryland is a great place to live! ua-cam.com/video/CwyKNOXWmGM/v-deo.html
I lived in Maryland for 41 years and miss it everyday.
There are so many things to do there that are positive.
It is close to Washington, DC, New Jersey, Delaware, Pa.PA., New York City and to Northern Virginia.
The seafood is great and also the social life.
A great state to raise a family.
As a Marylander and a state legislator, I really enjoyed this and learned so much!
Thank you!
Do better. Maryland is awful.
@@turtlepopper *Baltimore
Quit wasting our taxes!
I'm joking. I don't even live in Maryland.
@@ericstapleton9577 *maryland as a whole. Marylanders are leaving in droves to PA because of "proud state legislators" like this looney tune.
Finally! I love when people can see just how great my home state is! Fantastic job. There really is something for everyone here. And I can confirm that most everyone here owns something with the flag on it :)
It’s really not that great. There’s not much to do, the only big city you’ll probably get murdered in, and the people kind of suck. I can’t wait to get out
@@swimmer8585 not much to do? Maybe you need to get out more. I will acknowledge that Bmore has a crime issue, but you just have to be smart about it. Maybe we have different definitions of “great”. Born and raised in MD and I’ve never been tired of living here. Even moved to the west coast and still came back home.
@@swimmer8585 you definitely should leave MD so you can appreciate what we have here. I came from a state where you can drive all damn day and you will still be in a brown dead field. I’d rather spend that whole day in Baltimore.
Been here for 38 years own nothing with our state flag on it. I own a bunch of old bay and use it in almost everything
There's only two things to do here go to the harbor or get high off crack
Love my home state, growing up all over Montgomery County. This is a well timed video recommendation as I have been out of the country for the past 4 years and feeling a little homesick.
Don't come back. It's not the same.
Hey man! from one native Montgomery county resident I'm from Gaithersburg. Wbu?
Excellent job! I could have gone for another 35 minutes! I am originally from Minnesota. We moved to Baltimore County when I was six years old. I am now in my late sixties and am so very proud to be a Marylander!!! Thank you!!!
As much as I loved rural Baltimore county when I was a kid in the '60s it saddens me how much the Phoenix area has changed.
Took the opposite route. Some years ago moved from my native MD to Mpls-Stp . Definitely a cultural difference. Now happily settled in Michigan. You actually LIKE living in MD. I was happy to take refuge in the the Northland, land of ice and snow
For anyone asking what state is next, it’s in chronological order by date of statehood
If you don’t have 30 minutes to watch this: CRAB CAKES AND FOOTBALL. THATS WHAT MARYLAND DOES
Heroin as well 😂😂 oh and the prostitutes
@@cosmokramer5055 Thats just the city dont look at them.
@@garymanning7283 oh it’s in every county with the prostis and I will look cause they are hilarious
Wait dont forget we also put the MOST D1 athletes in general into colleges across the nation from PG County AKA Wakanda
And communism.
This was actually really cool. Lived in Maryland all my life and there is so much to do here! I always tell people who grew up here and hate Maryland that they dont live right. You got mountains, 2 cities and beaches all within 3 hours of each other
This is a very good video essay 😍 I've lived in Maryland for 34 years now (born in N.Y.), I'm enjoying this video. Thanks!
Fun fact from WWI. Fort McHenry served as the second largest military hospital during the war called US Army General Hospital No. 2. Buildings were put up pretty much everywhere that was grass and there were a lot of medical advancements in reconstruction surgeries and occupational therapy.
As a Marylander whose lived here all my life, gotta say, excellent video! Though Havre de Grace is pronounced have-dee-Grace just fyi
That one stopped me too, I was asking myself "how did he pronounce that?
Or as my Baltimore born father calls it, Hava dee grass!! Lol
I never knew that. THanK You. I say Harvey de grace.. lol
Hav rah deh graw is how HdG natives pronounce it, lived there for 7yrs it French as it was founded by the French
I call it "Have-A-Disgrace" lmao
As a kid growing up in Maryland and along the Susquehanna river i was always fascinated with the Susquehannock natives. The legends around them were they were giant warriors, easily over 6 feet tall. I learned later this was an exaggeration by early settlers and explorers, but they were generally much taller than Europeans at the time probably because they had a very healthy diet. And even tho they are gone now they left a lot of really interesting petroglyphs carved in rocks in and along the river.
As a kid growing up in Maryland was great, there was a huge wealth of history all around and we were there for the birth of the nation. Heck i went to school with a kid whose family farm is actually older than the United States.
Did you know the Susquehanna river is one of the oldest rivers in the world? At over 300 million years old, it's third behind the Nile and the Colorado rivers. The Susquehanna is older than the Chesapeake bay and the Atlantic ocean.
I love how this guy is maybe 15, and he takes me to school in every video.
Also, that new intro is fire!
Great job! This entire series is excellent, but since I am from Maryland (PG County), this was def my favorite so far :) lol
I’m from pg county Oxon hill
@Rodent's Revenge I hope the move is a good one! It's pretty in Cumberland but not much to do... at least not enough for me.
@Rodent's Revenge I hear that... Everyone's experience is different. I am blessed with some solid community here. That definitely makes the difference.
Im grew up in both PG and Montgomery county and love it. I wouldn’t change anything with PG or Montgomery county. PG has the beautiful national harbor and Montgomery county is so close to DC. Nothing to fix. It’s perfect.
Yesss PG native here! Loved this
*shakes some old bay on this video* THERE! Now it's a great video!
Maryland has the best flag
Love from Baltimore, Maryland 💯💯
Not apart of dmv. BALTIMORE!!!
@@ktax1813 no shit I'm From Baltimore so I know this already 😂😂😂
@@chriscarter8228 No doubt!!!
I lived in Montgomery County for the first 8 years of my life, but never went to Baltimore until I was in college and returned to the DC area for an internship. It's odd how close together MD's cities are, yet how different they are. BTW, I definitely regret not going to Baltimore sooner; it's really a fascinating place! But my parents had an overblown paranoia about it.
Hi
Wow, can't believe he mentioned Wheaton's Metro escalator - I knew it was crazy long, but didn't know it was the longest IN THE WESTERN HEMISPHERE!!!!
As a person living in Appalachia... Thank you for getting both pronunciations in there!
I was born and raised in NYC but after college, I moved to Montgomery Co. MD, and lived there for 37 years. As such, I can attest Maryland (specifically the Baltimore/DC area) has a distinctly northern feel. I recently moved away as I near retirement, but I am very grateful to have lived in the DC area in Maryland, it's a fantastic place and served my family very well. I live on the other side of the eastern shore (DE) now and am still only a few miles away from Maryland, where I can visit great towns like Easton and Chestertown. I am planning a photo trip this summer to follow Harriet Tubman's path for the Underground Railroad. One of the stops on that path is the Star Hill Church, just a mile or so from my current home. Thanks for the video, very well done.
Eastern and central Maryland have a northern feel, but once you pass Frederick, it is very much a southern state (speaking as a western Marylander)
Any part of Maryland that’s near DC or Baltimore will have a “northern” feel. That doesn’t make it a northern state….
@@ConnorRussell27where are the people though 😅😂 if 85% of the citizens are from the northern feeling part then it’s probably more accurate to call it’s a northern state lol. The place is like, +14 Dem.
Great to see that you are back! I really enjoy your "The US Explained" series. Greetings from Germany!
I grew up in Maryland and I am pretty well versed in Maryland history and culture. you taught me a few things so well done my friend!!!!!
Born in MD and been living in MD my entire life. Our state is getting recognized more often finally!!
I am so glad you included a sort of land acknowledgement in the video. I never knew which indigenous peoples once lived where I am until I decided to look it up in the fall after taking an ethnohistory college course
This video did a pretty good job of touching on the major Native American groups. As a reporter in the state some 30 years ago, I wrote some stories on the efforts of the Piscataway and Piscataway-Conoy groups to gain state recognition.
@@johnalden5821 I am of the Piscataway Conoy Confederation. We got state recognition in 2012. It was a long and hard fight.
@@reneedelaney4790 A long and honorable effort, and thank God for it.
@@reneedelaney4790 I wish that schools would teach about it more in Maryland. I go to college in Rochester, NY and I saw a lot stronger of a presence of Native American history in curricula especially of the Haudenosaunee Confederation. I even took a research paper I did for that class to a peer-reviewed conference. I am studying to become a public historian and I never really pictured myself having a big interest in the topic (no disrespect or anything) but after taking the class I am seriously considering ethnohistory as a concentration. I would love to learn more about the Piscataway Conoy Confederation and it’s history! Do you have any recommendations for resources to look at?
@@maddied4669 my 4th grade son's social studies entire 1st quarter was spent on the indigenous peoples of what is now Maryland - we live in Howard County, MD. Fourth Grade Social Studies!!
One of the many, many reasons I love living here: diversity, inclusion, and an amazing public school system! :)
Great video! I'm a native Marylander, from Harford County, and this was excellently put together! It always makes me smile when Maryland is talked about online, as I feel that even though we are right next to D.C. we get forgotten about.
Can't thank you enough for this incredible video. I've lived in Maryland, primarily Baltimore City, my entire life and I am pretty old now. BUT. Still learned so much from this project. And the accompanying photographs and various shots of Maryland, made me realize, that there are time Baltimore has been the brunt of off-handed "humor" or "slurs" (depending on your point of view), the entire state looks so good. I don't know if you'll ever see my comment, but wanted to let you know how much work and effort you obviously put into this. THANKS!
I worked in Baltimore a few times in the '70s and '80s, at a tropical fish warehouse, Maryland Shipbuilding & Drydock, GM, and a convenience store. The High's store on Light Street in the '80s was the site of my first encounter with would-be robbers.
DC native and have lived in Silver Spring, MD for over 27 years. Great area to grow up, so much so close.
I'm moving out there shortly. Silver Spring and Chevy Chase seem awesome
Thank you from a Marylander born and raised and still here. It is about time someone showed how beautiful this state is.
As a native Marylander, this is an awesome video. I'm from Columbia, MD which has a fascinating history all on its own. Keep up the good work!
The US Open was once played out at Columbia Country Club, right in your back yard. I betchya didn't know that or did you
Also, it’s the 2nd most populated city after Baltimore…
You forgot the fact that Maryland has one of the longest-running Miocene exposure in the country and is one of the few places in the world where you can collect Miocene fossils without digging
I'm a local Texan and moved to Maryland after being overseas for many years. The IT career field has so many opportunities both private and government. After being here in Maryland for more than a couple of years, I love this state. From the food to the people, activities to outdoors fun this place is amazing. It may be expensive then other areas, but has some of the fastest growing metropolitan areas in recent years.
The fact that you can drive 3 hours to the east and be in the Atlantic and 3 hours west and be in the mountains. It's an amazing area.
My biggest dislike is ... the ... TRAFFIC and infrastructure. Holy grug!
I digress. Great video and full of information. Thanks for sharing.
Any drive on i-270 and you're bound to encounter drag racers man
I would have liked to have seen some information on the diversity of the accents in Maryland.
Maryland has four main original accents:
(1) Midland South Appalachian Accent in Western Maryland,
(2) Central Pennsylvanian Accent in Northern and Central Maryland,
(3) The US Mid-Atlantic (Delaware Valley) Accent around Baltimore and Washington, D.C., and
(4) The Southern Tidewater Accent along the Southern Chesapeake Shore and on the Eastern Shore.
Baltimore has its own accent lol. Nearer to DC, the accents are totally different.
What about the Dundalk accent? 🤓
@@humphr1d The Dundalk Accent is a local variety of the Baltimore Accent. The Baltimore accent is a subaccent of the US Mid-Atlantic (Delaware Valley) Accent.
I was just being cheeky hon 😁
No. 3 must be the one where they call Maryland..."Merlun", lol!
Wow, I've lived in Maryland my whole life and you gave me new information!
As a complete stranger to the US, I really enjoy this series to learn more about the different states. I particularly appreciate that you include kilometers for important figures. However in this episode I felt like there were not enough maps compared to the previous ones, it wasn't easy to understand where the different cities or landmarks were located. I hope you can put more in the next ones. Otherwise another great video !
Thanks for the feedback, good to know!
I’d appreciate periodic whole-state maps to check back in and contextualze as I learn more info from the video

MD hasn't given any Presidents, but has given a number of Supreme Court Justices, notably Taney and Thurgood Marshall
One VP though
@@starjun97 Best damn VP ever!!!
Yeah closet we got was secretary of state
@@branplore We actually had a Vice President. Spiro Agnew. Former Governor.
Greetings from New Zealand. Love the series. I have been to Baltimore once in 2013 we played a punx picnic there. We stayed in DC though. Never realized how close it was.
The "closeness" of the two cities really depends on how many cops are on 95. LOL
punx picnic was always one of my favorite low key events growing up, all the cool kids were there lol
Yup Dc was given land from Md to build Dc
@@bmoregood6878 Please stop telling people that, that happened, almost 300 years ago just like Texas used to be a part of Mexico sh!h is old ancient history 😂
@@washingtondc9290 guess what it happened
Born and raised on the Eastern Shore of MD, much appreciation for covering our little state! My family has been around here since the early-mid 1800s.
Awesome. My family came to the Eastern Shore from Ulster Ireland in 1692. Haven’t left since. A local church not too far from me has headstones of my family members from the early 1700s
Clear, entertaining, accurate, just the right amount of everything.
BEST FLAG MARYLAND LETS GOOOO. Waited since the fall for this episode
As a resident of Maryland for 40 years now, I appreciate this very well done video extolling the virtues of the state.
My family were English colonists and tobacco planters in the Chesapeake Colony. They arrived in Anne Arundel near Annapolis in 1680. They arrived with a guarantee of land from the Calverts. They intermarried with many other tobacco families. There they served as patriots in the Revolutionary and Civil wars ( on the Union side). My great great grandfather was wounded at Antietam. After the Civil War, the price of tobacco fell. They sold their land and moved to the city (Baltimore) were my great great grandfather was born. I grew up learning Maryland history in Catholic school, eating crab cakes, cheering for the Colts and Oriels, visiting Fort McHenry on field trips, and celebrating Defenders Day on 9/12 and Maryland Day on 3/25. . I now live in PA, but have deep Maryland roots which I am very proud of.
Tobacco industry didn't die. It was murdered during the Marvin Mandel years
As a lifelong resident of Maryland, I like to compliment you on a nice video production and audio recap of Maryland. Continued success!
the way he said havre de grace i’m cackling
edit: we pronounce it “haver-duh-grace”
Same, I made a comment about it too lol
Edit: except I pronounce it “haver-dee-grace”
We just say Grace. Deen right up the road.
And Ellicott City is pronounced ell-i-cut city.
I say this about any non-Marylander pronouncing any Md towns its always cringe
I pronounce it “harver-d’grace” 😬
I must say. This video hits on damn near everything for maryland. Really good job. Maryland is so rich in history here.
Wisconsin resident here. Congrats, Marylanders! Beautiful state. The Midwest and the East Coast look alike. Hope to see a video of my state from this channel someday! 🛶🍁🐿
Ocean city looks like almost everyone owns a boat there. Like if my car broke down I'ma drive my boat to work if I could
Lmao
Lol
My aunt owns a condo there and two boats. When I'm down there spending the night (normally because I'm supporting the Ocean City Airshow with the Civil Air Patrol,) they commonly take me across Sinepuxent Bay to dinner on one of their boats to beat traffic on the Rt. 50 drawbridge.
God it use to be like that, OC is losing its touch though. Rohoboth is where its at.
@@user-hw9fr4fr6q lmao I live in Rehoboth Beach
Carter- you are a Rockstar. Thank you for your dedication to this channel
No doubt Maryland has it all, mountains and skiing in the west, rivers and Bay in the middle and Ocean to the east. We have dense cities to rural suburbs to huge farms and wetlands. Of course being beside DC/VA and having a cool flag doesn't hurt.
I am from Maryland and I thank you. You summed it up so accurately and we are very much in the middle
Awesome video. Don't know much about Maryland, and you definitely covered a lot 👍💯
Your channel is one of the few that demand an immediate viewing upon upload. When you get a better microphone it’ll be even better. Love the development Carter! Keep hustling!
I love my state so much, thank you for giving it some of the recognition that not only it deserves, but it also desperately needs
I grew up in Randallstown Maryland and it was super cool getting to hear so many facts about Maryland. I never knew the ravens got their name from Edgar Allen Poe. That's so cool!
I grew up in maryland and still live here. Great state and economy. We have the best blue crabs also. Thats no bs. Lots of history here. Great video. ✌
Great video, I’m from here, you covered so much.
Just one thing I’d add: more Ethiopians and Salvadorans live in Montgomery county, which is home to a large plurality of immigrants in the state.
Glad you enjoyed it!
As an Ethiopian, I can confirm that is true.
I’m also pretty sure a lot of Hondurans move there, not too sure though
That's awesome! Too bad Marylanders are not asked nor vote on such issues.
@@billwhitacre703 What?
As a lifelong resident of Maryland who traces his genealogy to Charles Carroll, I feel you did Maryland proud with this video. Well Done!!
WOW...That is interesting...didn't know Maryland had such a rich history...now I know thanks too your channel.😌❤
Thank you for posting such interesting information about my home state. I appreciate it very much. I was raised in PG County and now reside in Charles County. Maryland is a great place to live!❤❤❤
Wow this is the channel I've been looking for. I'm not from the US but I've always been curious what makes each state different, what are each state's climates, cuisine, etc. I've been looking for a documentary on all of them, but this is even better
Hi
I WANNA GO HOME!!! 😢 Miss you, Maryland!! With your mustardy pretzels and less segregated ways, mountains, farms, cities, the bay.. 🦀 I hope I see you again Someday! 🤗
Where do you live now?
What an amazing video. As a Marylander being born and raised here in Maryland this video opened my eyes about my ancestors cause a way way long time my ancestors from all over the world immigrated here to Maryland. My family roots are pretty deep here. My ancestors was actually the founders of the small community that I live in. I'm made up of so many ingredients but perhaps that's what gives me my uniquely American flavor. Not only that but also my uniquely Maryland flavor.
I was raised in Warwick from 99 to 2011, we had a white house across the post office until my grandfather got dementia, I now happily live in Charlotte NC ❤ Maryland is always home!
I know exactly where you mean! I'm from Galena.
life hack: Old bay on french fries. You're welcome
👍 It's good on a lot of things. When I managed for High's Of Baltimore in the '80s I made subs with smoked turkey breast, lettuce, tomato, mayo, and Old Bay that I liked and were very popular with customers. It's good in a lot of soups, too. I didn't like it as much on beef or pizza, though.
Old bay on popcorn with a drizzle of honey 😋😋😋
@@sierrabird3817 yessss. Love old bay on popcorn!!
A great review of my great state. I've lived all over the US but Maryland is still the home of my heart.
Live in Md. Great job! Really relevant things covered!
Love this vid man, keep up the good work!!! Learned more in this video than I did in school.....and I live in Maryland all my life :)
You know, I never learned about Maryland in school unless it related to the rest of US history (civil war, fort McHenry, etc) and IM FROM MARYLAND. So sad. We never even did a field trip to Annapolis.
Correction: Francis Scott Key did not write a song called "The Star-Spangled Banner". He wrote a poem called "The Defense of Fort M'Henry", which was later set to the tune of a different song.
I've heard that it was also set to the tune of an old pub song. Would not doubt it. Fort McHenry is a cool place to visit.
I LOVE MY STATE
Me too
I'm a lifetime, 59-year Maryland resident. This is a great, thorough compilation of good info about Maryland!
With the Olympics currently happening, I'm also thinking about the great Olympians from Maryland, including Katie Ledecky and Michael Phelps.
I live in between Hancock and Hagerstown. I live in Outskirts of a little town of ClearSpring. I had 75 students in my graduating class. I've really enjoy living in Maryland. I've had the benefits of living a country life. With the mountains to camp an explorer. I have family that lives by the bay. I had fun crabbing, fishing, and tubing on the bay. Baltimore is forty-five minutes away, and DC. Is hour and a half drive. Ocean City is about it three and a half hours. There is so much historical stuff in Maryland, too. Even the house I grew up in is past two hundred years old. Md. is small but has a lot to offer.

As a Delawarean I definitely feel a sort of regional continuity with Maryland, I definitely feel that we both are very deeply Mid-Atlantic. And I love their flag :)
One of my uncles was mayor of his town and had places at Rehobeth, Fenwick Island, and the mouth of the Indian River, where he also kept a fishing boat that I was taken out on a few times as a boy.
Hey I recognize you saying you don’t want to get annexed by Maryland
@@battlepans1927 I don't! I can feel kinship without wanting to be annexed lol
@@polywerden makes sense.
In talking about Annapolis, I can't help to comment. I was in Greenwich, England just east of London city center, by a wee bit. I was bowled over by how much Annapolis looked like Greenwich in it's architecture and old town city streets. Both have very strong naval and maritime ties, and I figure Annapolis was obviously set to plan by the English that were there.
I guess it was just a wonderful slap in the face when in Greenwich to see the "original" version. It just made me smile a bit. 😊❤😊
My family has been in this state on the Eastern Shore since the 1700's. You did a great job explaining how different the regions of Maryland actually are. The state is wild to me. You can go from the beaches to the mountains on a good day in like 4 hours. Pretty incredible for a state so small.
Much love from a Salvadorian living in PG, Maryland. Don't forget to taste those pupusas peps! :)
Should have mentioned Brookeville, Md. It was capitol for a night when DC burned during the war of 1812
very beautiful suburban homes , great paying jobs in healthcare, government and the military
This video is the most informative one about Maryland. Thank you!
Excellent job! And as a native Marylander, I still learned some things from your video. Great idea for a series about the states. Keep up the good work. Thank you!
My State Lol was waiting for this one, thanks 🙏🏽
Maryland is awesome ❤️👍, lived in Laurel MD and Harpers Ferry WV in the mid to late 80’s
I worked in Laurel in the '80s. Liked it and made friends there. Started managing for High's there. Haven't been there in decades.
Born & Bred in MD it's history is amazing & the diversity of the state is great
