The real question is who does the Wedge belong to?





Does it belong to Pennsylvania because it was beyond the Twelve-Mile Circle, as indicated in this 1989 USGS map?


Or does it belong to Delaware because it was never intended for Pennsylvania to go below the northern border of Maryland?

(It cannot belong to Maryland because it is east of the north line of the Mason-Dixon)

In 1921 Pennsylvania and Delaware agreed that this small sliver of land should belong to Delaware.
