        They actually see the US falling apart and undergoing institutional collapse and that is what pushed them over the edge to say, let's get in on that.

          They felt bad for the US so they were just like, "Here, have our country instead."

            Very on brand for Canada, "We will do racism and genocide, but we will try to somehow portray ourselves as nice and considerate while doing it."

          The fucking Queen had to sign off on that shit too! Like, Australia can't just vote to join China.

            Actually, it is not stated, but the British monarchy has effectively ended. 2046 the queen finally choked on a chicken bone and died. By act of parliament, the mummified corpse of the queen is made monarch in aeternum instead of letting any of the fail children/grandchildren rule.

              If it came to like, giving the country away there would be a kerfuffle. They're British.

              Not sure if you're serious (I'm intoxicated atm) but the Queen overruled democracy in Australia once already:

      The balkanization of US is the most realistic part of this, the only problem is how there's only liberals versus the rednecks versus Florida when in reality it's going to be six fiefdoms split between six billionaires.
