Shipping from the State of California to New Hampshire
California is nicknamed The Golden State. It is also well-known by these nicknames: The Land of Milk and Honey, The El Dorado State, The Grape State, and The Bear State. The state tree is the California Redwood, the state bird is the California Valley Quail and the state flower is the Poppy. The state motto is ‘Eureka’ (I have found it).
The City and County of San Francisco is both the country’s second-most densely populated major city after New York City and the fifth-most densely populated county, behind only four of the five New York City boroughs. The state’s capital is Sacramento.
California became a U.S. territory in 1847 as part of the treaty ending the Mexican-American War. An influx of settlers headed to the west coast in search of fortune in 1848 as the discovery of gold at Sutter’s Mill became known. In 1850, California became the 31st state. Today, California is the 3rd largest state right behind Alaska and Texas by area and it is the most populous of U.S. states.
The State located in the Pacific Region of the United States. California shares a border with Oregon to the north, Nevada and Arizona to the east, and the Mexican state of Baja California to the south. The state’s diverse geography ranges from the Pacific Coast in the west to the Sierra Nevada mountain range in the east, and from the redwood and Douglas fir forests in the northwest to the Mojave Desert in the southeast. The Central Valley, a major agricultural area, dominates the state’s center. Although California is well-known for its warm Mediterranean climate, the large size of the state results in climates that vary from moist temperate rainforest in the north to arid desert in the interior, as well as snowy alpine in the mountains. Over time, drought and wildfires have become more frequent challenges. The Greater Los Angeles Area and the San Francisco Bay Area are the nation’s second and fifth-most populous urban regions. Los Angeles is California’s most populous city, and the country’s second-most populous, after New York City. California also has the nation’s most populous county, Los Angeles County, and its largest county by area, San Bernardino County

Attaining statehood on June 21, 1788, New Hampshire was the first state in the United States to have its own constitution. The state’s spirit of independence is symbolized in its motto, “Live Free or Die.” New Hampshire plays a vital role in national elections, as it was the first state to hold a primary election. Its primary results are considered an influence on the rest of the nation leading to the saying, “As New Hampshire goes, so goes the nation.”
New Hampshire shares borders with Massachusetts to the south and Vermont to the west. It has Maine and the Atlantic Ocean to the East and the Canadian province of Quebec to the North. New Hampshire is the 5th smallest state by surface area in the country. It is the spot of the White Mountains and the renowned Mount Washington. Mount Washington is one of the windiest areas in the nation. Concord is the state’s capital.
