You can’t pick CA, OR, NV and WA. Be more creative
California, Arizona , New Mexico & Texas offer the maximum land, surface area, coastline and cultural incompatibility, but the true partitioners choice is Montana, Wyoming, Colorado & New Mexico to chop this fucker in half. The wall is built and we're it baybeee 😎
Just keep MN in the mix, and invade Indiana to take annex that strip of lakeshore.
Yeah, I feel the large sons of MN would be useful as we conquer the rest of the Midwest.
Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Nebraska. That's 50% of the country's corn production. Bow down, motherfuckers.
Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, and Minnesota.
All you warm weather goons will be applying for visas in about 20 years (jk well abolish borders)
All those lakes and the Mississippi will be valuable in the coming water wars
They laughed at our obscenely cold weather for years! Well who's laughing now? We've got lots of water and a future temperate climate!
CA, OR, NV and WA all suck ass. I'm picking NY, NJ, PA, and OH. plenty of agriculture in Ohio, ore in Pennsylvania, good geographical diversity, port access as well as access to two of the great lakes, relatively mild climate in the summer. huge economic output from Pittsburgh as well as NY + Philly and their suburbs in NJ, and Ohio has three comfortably sized midsize cities (Cincy, Columbus, and Cleveland) that have really solid growth potential and underutilized industrial infrastructure from the American heyday.
i don't understand why leftists have such a love affair with California like jesus christ it's full of shitlibs and people with god complexes and you need a car to do anything. there's no pretty architecture and as soon as you go just a bit inland it turns into either a goddamn desert or a barren steppe
TX, NM, CO, and OK because when they combine it just looks like a bigger Texas. Mega Texas baby!
PA DE MD VA. The twist is that I want to live in the country that excises those terrible places.
lol. That's super funny since I chose DC, MD, VA, PA as my four to live in. Delaware can fuck off.
I would actually love to live in PA again, but I would sacrifice it if it meant getting rid of all of the DC and natsec people.
I like DC because of the museums and mall and stuff. It's a great city in a lot of ways, like walkability and park land. I think the natsec would sort of disappear by definition if it broke away. (And on the flipside, if it stayed a national defense hub, but for protecting new Hexbearistan from the 46 remaining United States of Capitalism, that... might be a good thing.)
TX, AR, TN, and VA
My state is going to be so fucking long. 2906 miles from El Paso TX to Chincoteague VA. Why? Fuck you, that's why.
NY, NJ, and PA should put aside their differences, and VT you're coming home.
okay, serious answer i think Maine's seriously being slept on, take that with New Hampshire and Vermont and we can roll thru Assachusets and expropriate all the demons in Martha's Vineyard
Plus, we can extract hidden Lovecraftian beings from there to use for our own good. Until it backfires tho
This was actually my answer! Being near the ocean is nice and I prefer north east weather
how about you take canada too since you're gonna act like a silly goose
In a few decades those states could have a mini Mediterranean climate, with Lake Michigan as a freshwater inland sea.
The lakes aren't big enough. It already gets to 90F and 90% humidity on way too many days in the summer. If you're like 500 feet or less from the water it's noticeably cooler but that's all you get.
By breaking away TX, OK, MO, IL you can split the country and control all east/west freight. Also possible with NM, CO, WY,MT but you probably want Texas because you need at least 1 state that makes money.
California, Arizona, New Mexico, Texas. Immediately joins Mexico.
