The capital of New Hampshire, USA. Located near the center of the southern part of the state along the Merrimack River.

In 1765 it was incorporated into New Hampshire and became Concord. In the early 19th century, printing, carriage manufacturing, and granite production were industries there, but they declined in the middle, and in the later years railroads, carriage repair, and silverware manufacturing flourished.
