Maryland County, County in southeastern Liberia.
Maryland County extends over 2,300 square kilometers of land, containing coastal areas, forests, rivers, and agricultural territories along the Atlantic Ocean.
The Maryland State Colonization Society established this territory in 1834 as a settlement for liberated American slaves before joining Liberia in 1857.
The county population includes Grebo communities who maintain traditional practices through farming, fishing, and community gatherings across seven administrative districts.
The port city of Harper serves as the administrative capital, offering connections by road and sea to neighboring regions and Côte d'Ivoire.
The William Tubman Mansion, Cape Palmas Lighthouse, and Lake Sheppard form a collection of architectural and natural landmarks in the Harper district.
