Chittenden County, located in the northwestern part of the great state of Vermont, is the state's most populous county, and home to Burlington, the largest city in Vermont. The county was created on October 22, 1787, and named after Vermont's first governor, Thomas Chittenden.

The region's history dates back to the 17th century when French explorers, led by Samuel de Champlain, first arrived in the area. The French controlled the region until it was ceded to the British after the French and Indian War (1754-1763). During the American Revolution, parts of Chittenden County witnessed key military events, such as the Battle of Shelburne, which was fought on October 18, 1813.

Chittenden County experienced significant growth and development in the 19th century, driven by the lumber and textile industries which contributed to the county's economic expansion. The University of Vermont was established in Burlington in 1791, and later, in the 20th century, the Burlington International Airport began operations, making Chittenden County an important regional transportation hub.

A fun fact about Chittenden County is that it was once home to the legendary Champ - the mythical lake monster said to inhabit Lake Champlain. Stories of this creature date back to Native American tales, and sightings have been reported throughout the years, with some even claiming to have caught the elusive creature on camera. Today, the legend of Champ continues to fascinate and attract tourists to the area, and the monster serves as a symbol of the region's folklore and natural beauty.
