edit: “Balkanised” is probably the right word, partition means to divide territory between two other states. If the US did break apart in pieces (probably in some sort of dystopian/everyone is going to die world), i wonder if other countries will try to nab bits of it (e.g. Britain regaining their colonies, Mexico regaining their lost territories, Spain regaining Florida, or even Russia taking over Alaska)
note: I am not advocating for the partition of the US, it’s just fun to think about new countries! Also, I’m not American and have never been there so I have no clue about the different cultures in the different states.
If the US broke up into multiple pieces in some way or another, what new countries would you want to appear? (with and without considering for the feasibility of such new countries) What would their relations be like with each other and with other countries?
Personally, I would think New York (the city) becoming an independent microstate would be kind of cool, like the Vatican City of the stock market. The idea of “Cascadia” (which, to my knowledge, includes California, Oregon, and one other I forgot the name of. I think a bit of Canada too. The west coast, right?) could be realised, and with California, they would have a very beefy economy, as well as Silicon Valley. An independent Alaskan state could also be interesting, especially since they have a cool flag. Same goes for Texas.
I’m glad we made it into the USC, but for the record, Pennsylvania is PA not PN.
It’s currently PA; the abbreviation will be one of the first changes.
I didn’t make the graphic, I just stole/hotlinked it. I am very familiar with PA, although it’s main redeeming quality is that it’s not New Jersey.
They also screwed up Maryland (should be MD not MY)
As a Washingtonian, I approve and would welcome our kindly benevolent and woefully apologetic new rulers with open arms.
Fun fact, Jesus never been in that land.
Fuck yeah I can watch hockey night in Canada, in Boston. Let’s do it.
“United States” of Canada? Why not just “Canada”?
Because it’s good for cohesion. If Americans feel like they are losing their identity they will be more likely to want to work with Jesusland instead of their fellow Canadians.
Well you are uniting multiple states, it’s in the name.
Poor Colorado fed to the wolves
Jesusland got to keep Alaska as an exclave, so Colorado could be an enclave (maybe also include the blue bits of NM). I also feel like Jesusland shouldn’t legally be allowed to have a place that calls itself “Sin City”, so might as well add Clark County NV to the blue side. Perhaps the same treatment for the parts of Virginia right around DC, or St. Louis, since they’re right on the border.
Alaska may vote red but they are not conservative at all. Pro weed and pro abortion are just one example of why it would not actually fit in with Jesusland.
