Why is Connecticut called the state of steady habits?
Connecticut was termed "The Land of Steady Habits," which is a nickname resulting from the strict morals of its inhabitants, who in the colony's earliest days were governed by rigid Blue Laws regulating public morality. Although Blue Laws no longer exist, this term is still recognized across the state.
The Philadelphia Aurora stated "The Land of Steady Habits is New England, and especially Connecticut" in a sarcastic article appearing December 23, 1800. The Aurora was a "Democratic-Republican" newspaper opposed to the Federalist party of Adams and Hamilton (and supporting Madison and Jefferson) that was published by Benjamin Franklin Bache, Benjamin Franklin's grandson. Richard N. Rosenfeld's, AMERICAN AURORA (New York: St. Martin's Press, 1997) presents a history of this newspaper.
