>>2868509
Actually not bad!

Anyone play the After the End mod for Crusader Kings 2? Tfw no Holy Columbian Confederacy.

Seriously though why doesnt the US try to minimise how many states they have like this? Sure not 20 but at least some. Surely it would be easier administrationally etc.

Rhode Island don't make no sense. It's not even a fucking island.

I went there for Easter Break. Cannot recommend it enough. Clean and developed towns, nice folk, great oceanside scenery. Thinking about moving there in my old age.

You're pretty much on the money, here's the map with the real states borders as well — your state descriptions were pretty accurate, there's just the occasional shaving off of a corner here or a weird enclave there, to make it a bit more concise.

We already do this with the 10 federal regions for administrative purposes.

Now imagine this is the Union of American Commonwealths and each 'Commonwealth' / country speaks a relatively different language depending on who colonized the area

An American EU would be pretty gnarly

Culturally and geographically though, those are way-ay too broad to have any everyday use.

Its official name is the State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations.

This is how you know you're living in the worst timeline.

Not really important factors to federal administration. More about having X number of offices serving % of population. Same with Federal courts and Reserve banks.

If you're redrawing borders it doesn't make sense to keep so much of it static. If you check out any of the new infrastructure plans they all focus on the emerging megaregions, the urban corridors where 90% of the country lives.

>>2868836

Bro these plans are being put into place in the world where 50 US states have existed — things may have developed far differently, it's not like Milwaukee always needed to br Milwaukee.

Some things might be constant, but not everything always would have panned out the same way.

I used to, but until they introduce societies not gonna bother.

Always played as michiana, becuz its in my home state and its easy to play as.

>>2868509

Maybe the Minnesota/Wisconsin/Upper Peninsula name should be some kind of Ojibwe.


I like the name Michilimackinac.

>>2869079

For people who don't know:

Michilimackinac

Michili - mack - inac

Michili like the Michelin man

Mack like, well Mac

And inac as either "ee-nack" or "ee-naw", depending.

>NY/VT in the first place

When I was a kid I used to think everything between Washington and Boston was part of New York City, and also that it was really that large. I've failed dozens of ez quizzes asking the capital of the US, because I keep assuming that Washington is a subdivision of New York city.
