The Wedge (or Delaware Wedge) is a 1.068-square-mile (684-acre; 2.77 km2) tract of land along the borders of Delaware, Maryland and Pennsylvania. Ownership of the land was disputed until 1921; it is now recognized as part of Delaware. The tract was created primarily by the shortcomings of contemporary surveying techniques when the boundaries were defined in the 18th century. It is bounded on the north by an eastern extension of the east–west portion of the Mason–Dixon line, on the west by the north–south portion of the Mason–Dixon line, and on the southeast by the Twelve-Mile Circle around New Castle, Delaware. The crossroads community of Mechanicsville, Delaware, lies within the area today.

  • ウェッジ(The Wedge)またはデラウェアウェッジ(Delaware Wedge)は、アメリカ合衆国のデラウェア州・メリーランド州・ペンシルベニア州の3つの州境が集まる場所にある約2.77km2の楔形の土地である。この土地がどこの州に属するのかについて、1921年まで争われた。現在はデラウェア州に属するものと認識されている。ウェッジは、17世紀に州境が定義されたときの測量技術の未熟さによって生み出されたものである。 ウェッジの境界の北と西はメイソン=ディクソン線、南東はデラウェア州ニューキャッスルを中心とする12マイル円によって構成されている。 (ja)
  • Klin Delaware to niewielki obszar (ok. 3 km²), leżący w stanie Delaware w pobliżu zbiegu granic stanów Maryland i Pensylwania. Na skutek problemów wiążących się z osiemnastowiecznymi technikami pomiarowymi stał się on przedmiotem ciągnącego się wiele lat sporu pomiędzy otaczającymi go stanami, rozstrzygniętego na korzyść Delaware dopiero w 1921. Północną granicą klina jest równoleżnikowa część Linii Masona-Dixona, zachodnią – południkowa część tej linii (tzw. „Linia Północna”), zaś od południowego wschodu ogranicza go . (pl)
