Hmm, where is the divide in California?

Okay.

All right.

A natural.

Could be.

Maybe.

I'll accept that.

Got me, so okay.

The Albania of North America... even if my wife is a Quebec City girl by

Okay, this needs some dividing up in my mind. Too diverse and too many
states with large populations/industry IMO.

Put Kentucky and Tennessee together with say West Virginia.

Have to give this some more thought...

Good point.

Panhandle thing corrected already. Other wise okay.

Okay, that was something I had not considered.

Dern good start.

How about Mexico and Central America? They are on the continent (said
the ex-Cartographer...)

Hx, SF, and Fx: 6 mm figures, Starships and 1:6K "Wet Navy" warships are my
main interest.

Mendocino, Glenn, Butte, Plumas, Lassen Counties and all counties north of
them go to Cascadia.

All it would take to be even more plausible is a bit of a population shift....

I'm open to suggestions....

Hadn't planned on having them change much, so didn't include them in the
reforming post, but if you have any ideas...

Split off the rural states (everything West of the Mississipi) from the more
urban /  industiralized Eastern states ?

Mainly for political reasons. They might still well trade with each other.

That's still a huge area, the splitting I've already proposed divides it up
even more than that, I think the objection someone made was to my making all
that area, most of which was east of the Mississippi and north of the MDL all
one country still.
