Good idea! I even started ticking off the M states- took me 3...what's even in Maryland except a separate district containing our Capital?

Baltimore, Annapolis and the Naval Academy. It is a very odd shaped state making it hard to imagine its size, going all the way out to West Virginia in a little panhandle.

Well Marylanders, for one. Maries? The Marylish? Marylingians?
