Massachusetts

Massachusetts is where English settlers first imagined remaking
their homeland in a wilderness they called New England. For all
their Englishness, they named the bay between Cape
Cod and the mainland after the coastal Massachusett
tribe, then took the bay’s name for their colony. The
towns of Plymouth, Salem, and Boston were the
beachhead from which the rest of New England was
colonized. As the state with the first college, first
democratic government, first rebels to defy the king,
first authors to invent an American literature, and
the first sailors to open the ports of Asia to the West,
Massachusetts claims that much of what matters
Whaling about New England happened here first. The state
Museum,
Nantucket remains a pioneer of science and culture to this day.
