State of Maine

Maine’s first permanent English settlements date from 1623. In 1775 the capture of the British ship Margaretta off the Maine coast was the first American naval victory of the Revolution. That year the British burned Falmouth. For a long period Maine was under the control of Massachusetts, but in 1820, following the Missouri Compromise, it became a state. From 1800 on humpback whale fishing was a major industry in the Gulf of Maine.

The capital of Maine is Augusta. Other major cities are Portland, Lewiston and Bangor. In 2005 the population stood at 1,321,505. Maine produces the majority of blueberries sold in the U.S. Other crops are apples, potatoes and other vegetables. Eggs and poultry are also important products. Because almost 90% of its area is forest, Maine has become a major producer of paper for the world-wide economy. Maine builds boats and makes toothpicks. Sardines and lobsters are a Maine specialty.

Tourist attractions are Acadia National Park, Bar Harbor, the Wadsworth-Longfellow House in Portland and the St. Croix Island Monument. Visitors are attracted by Maine’s beaches and forests, where camping and hunting are common activities.
