maryland-ers should know:


Origin of the Name Maryland
: Maryland was named to honor the Henrietta Maria (1609-1669)
State Nickname: Old Line State

State Song
: Maryland, My Maryland

State Motto:"Fatti Maschii, Parole Femine" Manly Deeds, Womanly Words

why this is so funny to me, i don't know. but it is.
state motto? should we be saying this often? like to greet each other and stuff? where/when is this put into use?

i don't remember why, but one day rachel waters and i were looking up state mottos on the intraweb machine. there are some PRETTY funny ones. oh heck. i really get a kick out of them.

so vague: NC--"to be rather than to seem."
so sweet: TX--"friendship."
so boring: UT--"industry."
so empowering: AK--"north to the future!"
