In the State of Vermont, Otter Creek serves as the longest river fully contained within the State of Vermont and is among the southernmost of the rivers associated with Lake Champlain in the State. While the majority of the State of Vermont is south of the Saint Lawrence Continental Divide, the northwestern portion of the State is actually north of the Divide and flows into the Saint Lawrence River and into the Gulf of Saint Lawrence.
Of the fifty (50) United States, Vermont and New Hampshire are unique in two-year term arrangements for their respective State Governors. No term limits exist in either state, and Phil Scott, the Governor of Vermont, is already on his fifth term, having held office in Montpelier since 2017. Montpelier is also the smallest of the state capitals of the United States by population, with a total population around eight thousand, also making the city smaller than a separate community within Washington County, Barre.
Paired with the second-lowest state population count in the United States, the State of Vermont is also interesting in containing a statehouse that can reasonably be described as “human-sized.” Though very minuscule compared to Burlington’s population counts of nearer fifty thousand, the City of Montpelier remains fairly influential in the progressive cultural traits in the State of Vermont. Also, in numerous spaces within the State, renewable energy through substantial power companies is often expected, and the State also serves as the largest producer of maple syrup in the nation, producing approximately half of the national supply.
The State of Vermont is bordered by the Province of Québec, Canada, to the north across the 45th parallel, the State of New Hampshire to the east across the Connecticut River, the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to the south (following a diagonal line slightly north of west from the east), and the State of New York to the west (a straight line in the south and the Poultney River and Lake Champlain in the north).
