Northern New England

Maine is a beautiful place, with dramatic scenery and an abundance of unspoiled land. Its cities are clean and safe and have a small-town feel. Residents of New Hampshire, the Granite state, pride themselves on their independence and self-reliance. This small state plays a large role in the politics of presidential elections every four years.
