Rumor has it the state got its name from the French province of Maine, since the colonial settlers of the area were mostly of French connections. Although Viking Leif Erikson explored the Maine coast in 1003, the influence the Nordic explorer may have exerted over the area was erased other than for a peculiar fact - the "dugout" canoes used by Native Americans are strongly reminiscent of the structure of Viking ships. The state played an important role during the Revolutionary War, when it was part of Massachusetts, and in the year 1775 after the battle of Lexington and Concord in April, citizens of Maine got thoroughly involved in the war when they captured the British ship "Margaretta" in Machias, on May 9, 1775! Today, ships builder General Dynamics Bath Iron Works is Maine's leading employer.
