Delaware became the 1st state on December 7, 1787. Its small size does not make its civic role simple. Delaware combines coastal communities, farms, chemical and financial industries, port activity, beach tourism, and a nationally significant corporate-law system. Residents may encounter state decisions through schools, transportation, environmental protection, courts, public records, and economic development, while many businesses encounter Delaware through incorporation and chancery law. This profile helps readers place Delaware’s representation and state government in context and find official resources without losing sight of the state’s unusually concentrated institutions.
