        You say that but its so prevalent that our state's senators and rep literally go out of their way to call and remind news stations to include Alaska whenever they put up maps or do weather shit.

          Ah I remember Palin said you can see Russia from Alaska and everyone laughed but it's actually true from a tiny island.

        Thats a piss poor trade since now the fascists can emulate america better by exterminating the native Alaskans.

      The Great Terror of 2038 replaced the population with snorting English gammons. Hundreds of thousands of Welsh refugees fled to West Virginia, which was immediately annexed by Virginia for completely unknown reasons.

        ok but that's a hugely different meaning of the word 'republican' ain't it. like yeah, technically American far right and in Britain much of the left are 'republicans' but it means almost the entirely opposite thing. also Plaid are a pretty small party, Labour who are unionists are far more prevalent

    On the night of his inauguration, President Nas X wept, for there were no worlds left to conquer.

    To indulge in some wonkery, this is a future where the empire succeeds in building a pro-imperial pro-"democracy" coaltion to dominate the EC. It looks like Amerikkka annexed all the trouble spots in the world and made each a state. Its the "if you two cant stop fighting, I'm taking the land" approach to conflict resolution. America has also used its dominance over a collapsing England (shown to be a void on the map) to encourage Anglo and Anglo colonized parts of the world to seek statehood. Dems also divide states up and merge some to consolidate power. They run a populist, Mr. Nas X, for president with a conservative for his running mate, ala Trump2020. AOC is a BIG, FAT, MESS.

    What kind of map is this even supposed to represent? In what timeline does the US control Siberia but not Russia or Kashmir but not India?

    No really, American empire will continue to expand. It has to, it's the world superpower!
