About Delaware State

Located on the East Coast of the United States, Delaware is one of the country’s smallest two states. It moves up to number six when looking at population stats as the state has more than 970,000 residents. Thomas West was the governor of the Colony of Virginia when he named the Delaware River. West used the same term to refer to the people who lived near the river, which led to the state adopting the same name. Delaware is a Sussex term that West’s battalion used. Though some Algonquin tribes originally lived in the area, white settlers moved to the region during the early 17th century. Known as both The First State and The Small Wonder, Delaware was the first state in the US.
