Did You Know!

New Hampshire has no official border with the state of Maine on land — the entire boundary between them is defined by a river, and most of it legally belongs to New Hampshire.

The border runs through the Piscataqua River, but under colonial-era rulings that still stand today, the boundary is the Maine shoreline itself, meaning the river — including much of its riverbed — is legally New Hampshire territory.

👉 As a result:

• New Hampshire technically owns most of the river used by Maine ports
• Jurisdiction disputes have gone all the way to the U.S. Supreme Court
• New Hampshire has authority over certain submerged lands closer to Maine than many residents realize

Even many lifelong residents of both states don’t know this — and it remains one of the strangest state-border arrangements in the U.S.
