Annapolis Overview

With a population just over 40,000, Annapolis is a picturesque city nestled on the Chesapeake Bay in Maryland. Annapolis is famous for its maritime heritage and each year, tourists flock to the area to get a taste of its colonial charm. Annapolis is the state capital, housing the Maryland State House and other important government buildings. The city is full of impressive 18th-century architecture, dating back to the era of the founding fathers of the country.

Each year, there’s the Annapolis Sailboat Show, which attracts boating enthusiasts the world over.  The maritime activities include the United States Naval Academy, which trains students on the site of Fort Severn.

During the American Revolution, Annapolis became a center of diplomacy and governance, and The Treaty of Paris, ending the Revolutionary War, was ratified in Annapolis. In 1783, Annapolis even served as the interim U.S. capital immediately afterward, and it is the place where General George Washington resigned his commission as Commander in Chief of the Continental Army.
