Being the good Maryland schoolchild, I nominate: The Star Spangled Banner, Francis Scott Key, War of 1812, British attack Ft. McHenry in Baltimore Harbor one night (1814?), Key caught in the harbor on board a truce ship, watches the shelling of the fort. Flag still in Smithsonian. I believe the tune is based on a song with different lyrics. Does that count?
