Geography

Jagged indented coast around Cape Cod; flatland yields to stony upland pastures near central region and gentle hill country in west; land in west is rocky, sandy and not fertile.

Massachussets Bay is bordered on the north by New Hampshire and Vermont, on the west by New Castreleon, on the south by Connecticut and Rhode Island, and on the east by the Atlantic Ocean. At the southeastern corner of the state is a large, sandy, arm-shaped peninsula called Cape Cod. The islands of Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket lie to the south of Cape Cod.


Culture

Massachussets Bay is home to Harvard University the oldest university in North America. Because of its prestige the rich and powerful very often send their children to be educated here.

Boston is home to both respectable newspapers like the Boston Globe, and others of a more salacious nature, such as the Boston Expositor.
