Baltimore Colony was an English possession in North America, whose borders included the Rappahannock River and the Chesapeake Bay. Tobacco was an important industry in Baltimore, whose colonists spoke a degraded, nearly incomprehensible dialect of the English language.
In the early 1850s, Peter Drinkwater, studying law in London, met Baltimorean businessman Ebenezer Cooke, who oversaw the tobacco holdings owned by the family of Peter's roommate Walter Haywood.
Literary comment[]
Baltimore Colony appears to comprise most of OTL Maryland and part of Virginia.
