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

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.

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!!

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!

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

From a Marylander, big fist-bump back

For real. Maryland often seems like the state the rest of the country forgot.

There are Salvadorans in California, I used to have many Salvi friends growing up.

Yeah I was born in Maryland and have lived in California majority of my life. I can confirm many Salvadorians also live there, as well.

I worked for Baltimore city in the 90's and there was a Salvadoran restaurant on Broadway that was great I'm from Alabama but I'll always love Maryland

Where's the salvatrucha then?

Whaaat. Are you fr?.

@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.

Isn't Baltimore separate from 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.

I agree. We have a lot of similarities -- and I really like Massachusetts (I would live there in a heartbeat). As a Marylander, I also see similarities with Connecticut and even New Jersey, for some of the same reasons: smaller states, maritime influences and lifestyles, a major urban core overlaying a rural/agricultural heritage, tons of ethnic and religious diversity, mixed politics, etc. I think our states have a lot to offer the rest of the country, but we are often overlooked or denigrated by people in those states.

@@johnalden5821 A move to the center would stop MA & MD from being denigrated.

Lol Maryland has absolutely nothing in common with Massachusetts, especially culturally. Massachusetts has much more in common with Connecticut while Maryland has more in common with Virginia and North Carolina.

@@johnalden5821 Lol Maryland and Connecticut has no similarities. Connecticut is much more faster paced, much more urban overall, the accents are totally different, the cost of living is totally different, Connecticut has a higher Puerto Rican, Dominican, Italian, Albanian, and Brazilian population, much more ethnically diverse, has way less population of African Americans, etc. There's no place in Maryland that feels anything like Stamford, Hartford, New Haven, etc. There are areas in Connecticut where the populations are overwhelmingly Puerto Rican/Hispanic. You won't find such in Maryland. Connecticut has a tri-state and New England feel combined that you won't find anywhere in Maryland. Maryland Democratic politics has much more to do with it's large percentage of African American population, not so in Connecticut or even New Jersey. I also see no similarities with urban New Jersey. The Mason-Dixon Line makes a world of difference and it shows!

I literally just listed a bunch of similarities between the two. Maybe they really don't cover much of the same cultural ground but there are economic and geographic similarities.

What's unique about Maryland is that the wealthiest of Americans and the poorest of Americans are represented here in large numbers.

I grew up in Montgomery County (suburb of DC) and I 100% agree with you. I was around the same age when I went to southeast DC and I was taken back how it looked. I honestly thought every place look like my county or Fairfax but I got a wake up call.

Lol it's not like that one bit over on the eastern shore

Pg county is a dc suburb and it’s not that wealthy

you coulda left out “as a marylander” and we would’ve gotten that from the “hon” haha

"Hon" XD

Mine is named Liberty.

@@ocularzombie6679 cj

@@ocularzombie6679 That reminds me, he didn’t mention Roger B. Taney, certainly an infamous Marylander. My middle school was named after him. It was changed in1993 to Thurgood Marshall. The name Liberty brought this to mind because it must be a new school or a new name. Schools should not be named after people.

I graduated from Bowie High in 1978. Crossland was usually on the Bulldogs football schedule. Those were the best of times in PG County. Saw all the great bands at the Capitol Center.

Went to Potomac lmao

The restaurants in Rockville are great. Did you ever go up to the restaurants in downtown Frederick?

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.

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.

People in MOCO are the problem why many things about our state suck!!!

@@mongo5392 how?

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

Hello greetings

Come on. It’s French. Of course we mispronounce it. Like St Louis.

He also got the pronunciation of Ellicott City wrong (people insist it is el-ih-kit vs. el-ih-cot), but surprised he got Bowie right. When I first moved here every time I said the names of those two areas I always got clowned on for mispronouncing them.

have a disgrace

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

Or College Park. 😭 Maryland is such a beautiful state though.

Felt the same about Frederick…

Annapolis is mocked by the rest of MD.

@@user-hw9fr4fr6q I've been to college park, whats so special about it?

@@GatgerGaming same with college park, I've been to Fredrick and there's nothing too special about it other than it being slightly bigger than other smaller towns or cities in Maryland and it being right next to Appalachia mountains.

mare uh lin

Baltimore is the worst city it’s so dangerous and I was watching our local news we already had about 150 shooting and over 800 violent crimes.

@Rodent's Revenge your right, since I live in Harford County Md it’s safer and smaller so I might think Baltimore is a shithole

The metro area has a lot of varieties, but is super liberal and crowded

Thats where all of these none driving people come from. I see all of them va tags 😶

@@dominiccangelosi1876 lived here all my life, I’m 17. I’m doing everything in my power to get out alive, even spending majority of my teenage years in the house… better safe than sorry. Too many have died and I have thought about what my life would be like 50 miles in any direction. 😕

Tobacco industry didn't die. It was murdered during the Marvin Mandel years

Granted. Votes Northern and STILL (in spite of the overpopulated center) lives like Gone With the Wind. Born in MD but fled to the Midwest where you afford to live

You’re wrong. Maryland is neither. Maryland is Maryland. It’s it own thing. It’s own style. Like how Florida is Florida; Texas is Texas. It’s just different.

⁠@@AuburnFanSince2010That’s what makes us our own thing though. We’re unique. Western and Central Maryland are more Northern in nature. Southern Maryland and the Eastern Shore are most definitely more Southern in nature. Sort of like how East Texas is southern in nature, but West Texas is more midwestern. Or how Northern Florida is more southern in nature, while south Florida is more Latino.

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

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

Also prior to the Civil War, Baltimore had the largest population of freed blacks in the United States. I wrote my senior thesis on this during undergrad.

Did you know they sold slaves under Lexington market?

Yeaaaaah Baltimore is far from perfect I mean shit the city practically created the concept of redlining what with early blockbusting tactics and hyper-segregation that still persists today.

Lexington Market is actually being upgraded.Which ongoing.It so needed it.

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!!

You for got Southern Maryland on the lower western shore. They say yall

Hi

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.

The "closeness" of the two cities really depends on how many cops are on 95. LOL
