Areacode301 was one of the original areacodes established in 1947, and was the exclusive areacode for the entire state of Maryland until it was split with 410 on October 6, 1991.
Telephone areacode202 is the areacode for Washington, D.C., and is coextensive with the District of Columbia.
As of 2005, there are no plans to split or overlay the areacode, probably since the total population of the District is less than 600,000, and the number of possible legitimate telephone numbers in an areacode is more than ten times this number.
Originally, areacode202 was an unpublished alternate areacode for the nearby suburbs in Maryland and Virginia, which were officially in areacodes301 and 703, respectively.
