Idling in Maryland Maryland possesses a great variety of topography, hence its nickname, "America in Miniature." It ranges from sandy dunes dotted with sea grass in the east, to low marshlands teeming with water snakes and large bald cypress near the bay, to gently rolling hills of oak forest, in the Piedmont Region |
and mountain pine groves in the west. The majority of Maryland's population is concentrated in the cities and suburbs surrounding Washington, DC and Maryland's most populous city, Baltimore. |
