Now an entry into Fortnightly Topic Challenge #41: Short and Sweet

Having a new try on "where do I want to go next" questions", hope you enjoy it.

I have visited:

1: Regulations on the internet in an adventure

2: A shirt for sports I just bought

3: A part of the former USSR or What's that always-learning monkey called?

4: Better put them together or it will be parted by me

5: That classic rhyme with "nd" instead of a m

6: That girl up there with the marbles, I hate that beldam, misread and misread

7: 6 in a more down-to-earth sense

8: Put a fresh r in the middle of the middle of an egg, and discard the last bit

9: Going on the wrong road on the isle

10: Weighing a vectors of booleans

11: Half the virtue Harry Potter’s wife should have

12: Oh, where’s Morgan, and the shack in the creek?

P.S. I am not aware of any typos.

P.P.S. Please tell me what I could improve on, thanks!

Bonus question: What do all these places have in common?

1: Regulations on the internet in an adventure

E-law in a Dare yields Delaware.

2: A shirt for sports I just bought

From @WAF: New Jersey.

3: A part of the former USSR or What's that always-learning monkey called?

The republic of (and the state of) [Curious] Georgia.

4: Better put them together or it will be parted by me

Connect, or I cut: Connecticut.

5: That classic rhyme with "nd" instead of a m

From @WAF: Maryland.

6: That girl up there with the marbles, I hate that beldam, misread and misread

From @WAF: North Carolina.

7: 6 in a more down-to-earth sense

From @WAF: South Carolina.

8: Put a fresh r in the middle of the middle of an egg, and discard the last bit

From @WAF: New York.

9: Going on the wrong road on the isle

Rode the island...Rhode Island.

10: Weighing a vectors of booleans

We need to mass a choose set — Massachusetts

11: Half the virtue Harry Potter’s wife should have

Harry Potter’s wife is Ginny, so combined with half of the virgin virtue we get Vir + Ginny-a Virginia.

12: Oh, where’s Morgan, and the shack in the creek?

This is a Magic Tree House reference, and Jack and Annie are from Frog Creek, Pennsylvania.

Bonus:

All of these places you have visited are US states which were part of the original 13 colonies. This means that you’re going to the 13th colony next, which is New Hampshire.
