A charter from King Charles I of England (1600-1649) provided land in the Chesapeake Bay area to Lord Cecil Calvert Baltimore (1605-1675). The new owner named the country Maryland after Henrietta Mary (1609-1669), the king’s wife and Catholic, and made it a refuge for Roman Catholics suffering from religious persecution in England. However, Calvert did not impose any restrictions on non-Catholics and accepted all believing Christians. See Maryland abbreviation.
Calvert’s brother Leonard (1606–1647) founded Saint Mary’s City in 1634, the first capital of the area. The establishment of tobacco plantations moved the main settlement centers to the northwest, and in 1694 the capital moved to Annapolis. Baltimore was founded in 1729. Although the slave market had been prosecuted since 1783, many slaves worked on many plantations and slavery was not abolished until 1864.
Disputes between the Calvert and Penn families ended in the 1960s with the creation of the Mason and Dixon Line, the border that separated Maryland and Pennsylvania. Maryland played an active role in the War of Independence, and the Treaty of Paris, which recognized the independence of the colonies, was signed in 1783 in Annapolis. In 1814, the British attack on Baltimore was repulsed. The following decades began to build the first road and rail routes through the Appalachian Mountains. During the Civil War, the interests of the citizens of Maryland differed, but the state remained in the Union. Maryland never deprived blacks of the right to vote, and this attracted many blacks from the South to its territory.
The Port of Baltimore remains one of the busiest in the United States, also because the city is a center for shipbuilding, electrical engineering, and electronics. However, the greatest benefits are provided by services, trade, finance and developing tourism.
Frederick
Frederick is a city located in the west of the US state of Maryland, in the United States of America. It is the county seat of Frederick County – the largest county in Maryland. Currently, around 60,000 people live in the city.
Frederick is home to the Frederick Municipal Airport (FDK), which is the largest employer in the county. It is also home to BP Solar, the country’s largest supplier of solar panels and employs a large number of local residents.
Frederick is known for the silhouette of the Clustered Spires buildings located in the historic center of the city. The towers of these buildings are even depicted on the city seal and logo and other insignia. An important landmark of the city is also the Community Bridge, which was decorated with his paintings by the artist William Cochran. Probably the oldest house is the Schifferstadt built in 1756 by the German settler Josef Brunner. Now this house houses an architectural museum.
Another important historical building is the Tyler Spite House, which was built in 1814 by the leading ophthalmologist Dr. John Tyler. The building is located at 112 W. Church Street and serves as the offices of The Design Method Group.
