«In 1608, Capt. John Smith explored Chesapeake Bay.
Charles I granted a royal charter for Maryland to Cecil Calvert,
Lord Baltimore, in 1632, and English settlers, many of whom
were Roman Catholic, landed on St. Clement's (now Blakistone)
Island in 1634. Religious freedom, granted all Christians in
the Toleration Act passed by the Maryland assembly in 1649,
was ended by a Puritan revolt, 1654–1658.
In 1791, Maryland ceded land to form the District of Columbia.
In 1814, during the British attempt to capture Baltimore, the
bombardment of Fort McHenry inspired Francis Scott Key to
write the words to “The Star-Spangled Banner»
