      New Amsterdam is the name slave owners thought of, how about New Leningrad?

        Were the Dutch big on chattel slavery? I know they did feudalism, but the AFAIK slaveowners are the ones who renamed it to New York. New Lenningrad is a dope name though.

          A lot of Dutch pirates made good money by capturing slave ships and selling the people. They were relatively early in the abolition of slavery, for what that is worth, and did so before England, I think. A fun digression to go down is the number of Dutch pirates who joined the Barbary Corsairs in North Africa basically just because it was easier to fuck over Spanish ships there than it was in the English Channel. A pretty solid number of Dutch sailors ended up in the Ottoman navy out of sheer hate for the Spanish Empire.

          They also took over a whole lot of Portuguese territory and were completely happy using slave labour to keep the money coming back to Europe, just through a different port.

    Unfortunately most of what's labeled Cascadia is a white-supremecist project. Cascadia would be lucky to get a contiguous area from Portland to Seattle. Unless they were willing to use their economic/shipping importance to subjugate the countryside like an ancient city-state.

      yeah, can confirm seattle and olympia would likely not tolerate any of the rural areas as part of their kingdom.

    Arguing that the west coast wouldn't become the New California Republic is revisionary

      not sure how they think michigan would divide in a million ways. Also there is almost 0 reason the UP would WANT to be part of Wisconsin. I'm also confused how there are so many socialist pockets? I've met like 4 "socialists" in my entire lifetime of being in michigan. I'm friends with all of them and we moved away.

        yeah, i would at least think the northern waters empire would take the whole UP. But it would make a great refuge for the socialist republics if they could take it.

    Also, as someone who lived for a long fuckin time in PA I can definitively say that whoever made this really fucked up the placement and size (and spelling) of the Amish State

    It should be more south, and more east, and bigger. Where they have it is up by fuckin Harrisburg lmao, that ain't Amish country
