Delaware
Geography, Delaware Facts
About half of Alabama
The state of Delaware consists of two
major land regions: The Piedmont and the Atlantic Coastal Plain. The Piedmont,
an area of gently rolling hills found in the northwest corner of the state, is
10 miles wide at its widest point. The highest point in Delaware, just 450 feet
above sea level, is found in the Piedmont. The Atlantic Coastal Plain stretches
across the rest of the state. It is a low, flat region that rises only about 80
feet above sea level. A 30,000-acre swamp lies along southern boundary of the
state. A long sand bar -- 28 miles long -- forms a border with the Atlantic
Ocean. This sandy strip to the east is a popular vacation region.
Delaware is our second smallest state. It is only 96 miles long and ranges from
9 to 35 miles in width.
