No other state beside Vermont spends more on its citizens than Delaware when measured by per capita distribution. However Delaware knows how to find its sources of income without taxing its citizens. The state department of transportation is funded entirely by vehicle fees and tolls on interstate 95 (The JFKennedy Turnpike) and state routes 1 and US route 301. No general funds pay for transportation projects. The general fund pays 97 percent of each students education (while local property taxes pay the other 3 percent). One third of the states income is from individual income tax, one third from gambling, and one third from corporations who have chosen Delaware to register. Delaware has a reputation for being very corporate board friendly, a tax haven for multinational business, and an extremely knowledgeable judiciary.

Clearly those who helped you did a good job, as did you in putting this together. You really captured the essence of Delaware in a way that a resident can find no fault with. Such is not usually true for other similar types of efforts. As someone else said, saying “New Ark” instead of “Newurk” was just the type of detail that made this great. If you were to expand this at a later date, I second the suggestion about how the state got the circular arc at the top. And the formation of the state boundary line with Maryland is interesting; it literally is the eastern portion of the Mason-Dixon Line. As I understand it, Mason and Dixon were hired to survey the border, separating William Penn’s land from that of George Calvert (the 1st Lord Baltimore). The western portion, of course, separates Pennsylvania and Maryland. And I’ve heard that Penn and Delaware got the benefit of an error they made - the southern border ought to have been somewhere around the town of Lewes (the location of the Swaanendael museum) near Cape Henlopen, but was made several miles lower to include what is now Bethany Beach and Fenwick Island! Can’t wait for the rest of the series. I trust it will be excellently done!

When looking at Pennsylvanias coat of arms (found on its states flag as well), each symbol represents a county of Pennsylvania. Notice the bottom middle panel with the three bundles of wheat? That represents Sussex County, Delaware. Named for William Pennsylvania friend, Samuel Sussex. The original name under Maryland colonial rule was Deale County.

Only one Native American was killed in Delaware history and it was because the husband of the mans wife he was cheating with became angry at the time of discovery. Native Americans were not forced from their dwellings and grounds as William Penn signed treaties with them and they remained legal residents. That didn't stop their massacre in western Pennsylvania but Delaware is still home to the Nanticoke and the Lenni Lenape. The Nanticoke own large tracts of land in and around the Indian River Bay and own most of the land the town of Dewey Beach rests upon.

As someone who grew up on the Eastern Shore of Maryland (the Delmarva Peninsula)...I am SHOOK by learning of the waterway that cuts across the Northern part of Delaware and the Maryland Eastern Shore that ships use to get to Baltimore from Philadelphia. I had NO idea that was there. Also, doesn't that make the Peninsula an island? I feel so confused now lol.

This is good content. Can you do a video on every U.S. state explaining the industies driving each states economy?

Because of the pandemic, Returns Day was a low key affair. In Sussex County's countyseat, Georgetown, the town celebrates the election results every other year. The losing candidate sits in the front seat if the horse drawn carriage while the winner sits in the backseat. They ride in the same carriage facing each other. Once they arrive at the town circle, they proceed to the chopping block. Both candidates grab the ax handle and together they lower the blade into the wooden block. Hence, they burry the hatchet. The town celebration begins with great oxen BBQ and beverages. Until modern times, the citizens would have to travel to the countyseat every other year to vote. The countyseat used to be at Lewes (pronounced loo-IS). The citizens would travel on foot or by horse through the mud, some as far away as Laurel and Seaford. The countyseat was relocated to the center of the county and named after the architect who drew up the towns lots and streets. His first name was George. Back then, citizens would stick around after the first Tuesday in November to wait for the results to be counted. 2 days later the election returns were read out loud. Today Returns Day is still a huge celebration.

Have been to returns day many times as I'm only about 6 miles from the circle..great of you to share that tidbit with folks👍✌😊

Another big driver of companies incorporating in Delaware that also deserves mention is the fact that, because so many companies have incorporated there historically (for tax and other financial reasons, as you point out), including most prominent public companies, the state has one of the most well developed bodies of corporate law, and some of the most sophisticated corporate law judges, in the country. You generally know exactly what you are getting if you incorporate in Delaware.

[@sailingspark9748]

Great start with one of the most overlooked states in the Union. I cannot wait till you hit NJ
