About Delaware State Which Delaware city do you belong to?
The state of Delaware is situated on the Atlantic Coast of the Mid - Atlantic region of the US. The name of the state has its origins in the British nobleman, Thomas West, 3rd Baron De La Warr, who was also the first colonial governor of Virginia. Delaware consists of 3 counties : New Castle, Sussex and Kent. Though the 2 southern counties have had a history of agriculture, the northern county is what enabled the state to become 2nd in engineers and civil scientists as a percentage of the workforce. The history of the state's industrial and economic development is connected to the impact that the Du Pont family had via the E. I. du Pont de Nemours and Company, which ranks among the biggest chemical companies in the world. The average weekly wage in the state is about $937, which is the 7th best weekly income in the country. The economy of Delaware generally performs better than the national economy.

Delaware State Song
"Our Delaware"

Oh the hills of dear New Castle, and the smiling vales between, When the corn is all in tassel, And the meadowlands are green;

Where the cattle crop the clover, And its breath is in the air, While the sun is shining over Our beloved Delaware.

Chorus

Oh our Delaware! Our beloved Delaware! For the sun is shining over our beloved Delaware, Oh our Delaware Our beloved Delaware! Heres the loyal son that pledges, Faith to good old Delaware.

Where the wheat fields break and billow, In the peaceful land of Kent, Where the toiler seeks his pillow, With the blessings of content;

Where the bloom that tints the peaches, Cheeks of merry maidens share, And the woodland chorus preaches A rejoiceing Delaware.

Dear old Sussex visions linger, Of the holly and the pine, Of Henlopens Jeweled finger, Flashing out across the brine;

Of the gardens and the hedges, And the welcome waiting there, For the loyal son that pledges Faith to good old Delaware.

From New Castle's rolling meadows, Through the fair rich fields of Kent, To the Sussex shores hear echoes, Of the pledge we now present;

Liberty and Independence, We will guard with loyal care, And hold fast to freedom's presence, In our home state Delaware.
