About Maryland

Maryland wraps around the Chesapeake Bay, reaching from Atlantic beaches on the Eastern Shore to Appalachian ridges in the west. The defense of Baltimore’s Fort McHenry during the War of 1812 inspired “The Star-Spangled Banner,” and the U.S. Naval Academy is based in Annapolis. Blue crabs from the bay are a staple of the state’s cuisine.
