FACTS ABOUT MARYLAND
A GREAT TEAM BUILDING LOCATION

Maryland has long been known as “The Old Line State.” During the Revolutionary War, 400 soldiers in the First Maryland Regiment fought off a British force of more than 10,000 and helped General George Washington’s army to escape defeat. Washington depended on the “Maryland Line” throughout the war to achieve victory, and the soldiers’ discipline and bravery earned Maryland its nickname.

Maryland was one of the thirteen colonies that revolted against British rule in the American Revolution. A large part of Maryland’s economic activity is centered around the Port of Baltimore and its related rail and trucking access. The port ranked 10th in the USA by tonnage. The most typical imports are raw materials and bulk commodities, such as iron ore, petroleum, sugar, and fertilizers, often distributed to the relatively close manufacturing centers of the inland Midwest.

Because of Maryland’s proximity to the center of government in Washington, D.C. much of its economy emphasizes technical and administrative tasks for the defense & aerospace industry and bio-research laboratories as well as staffing numerous government agency headquarters. In addition to these are many educational and medical research institutions including Johns Hopkins University and its medical research facilities which are now the largest single employer in the Baltimore area. Altogether, white collar technical and administrative workers comprise 25% of Maryland’s labor force, one of the highest state percentages in the country.

Famous people from Maryland include:

Spiro T. Agnew, former Vice President of the United States
Frederick Douglass, abolitionist
Thurgood Marshall, civil rights leader and Supreme Court Justice
Tom Clancy, novelist
Edgar Allan Poe, poet and writer
Upton Sinclair, author
Cab Calloway, famous jazz singer and bandleader.
Billie Holiday, singer
David Hasselhoff, actor
