Somehow they included Great Salt Lake. It is a "great" "lake" ;)
But they left out Great Slave Lake, and Great Bear Lake because they don't know Canadian geography. ;)
Great Salt Lake
lol, i guess that must be why.
fwiw, regardless of its name or how great it is, it is not one of the Great Lakes đ
To be fair, the Great Salt Lake isn't so great anymore.
No state that includes Quebec can be considered great.
Also why is Utah highlighted.Screams at you in poutine.
Nor Ohio, we're anything but great.
You got King's Island and Cedar Point

Why is Quebec included? They don't even want to be part of the country they are a part of
I think it has to do with the st. Lawrence. But yeah the queebs are weird.
great st Lawrence lake river
Although no-one likes the Québécois, and they don't like anyone else either, their linguistic and cultural ties to Europe allowed them to bring the Civil Code, delicious pastries, and proportional representation to the Constitution of this new country.
However they are now very resentful of the positive effect this had on the other States and a separatist Québécois party is trying to impose a Federal Pastry Export Moratorium.
Could you say more about Quebec and proportional representation? I tried searching all I found were some articles about Quebec hating non proportional representation.
I live in the US were as far as I know proportional representation is not a thing, which is incredibly useful to maintain the two party system. I come from a more civilized place with proportional representation and universal healthcare and it hurts so much to see how broken this country is.
What the Utah doin? Iâm sorry but there is nothing great about the salt lake.
Okay, but the name
Then you seem to be missing a chunk...
Both of those are significantly greater than lake saltyboi
The name is a lie, it is not great
I don't see any ports to the ocean. The map is a lie!
Believe me, you don't want Utah either. Mormons are nice but you have to deal with rogue polygamist communities, hyper conservatives, and the fact that the state is essentially run by the church.
Unironically it would be an immensely powerful nation. Good food production, good infrastructure, two of the three largest cities in the United States, many world class universities and research institutes, good mineral wealth as far as the industrialized northern hemisphere goes, lots of water, great commercial projection capacity, and a metric fuck ton of people. All without any of the dead weight states except Indiana. And all weâd have to do is deal with a bit of people who speak French poorly and a province thatâs far more liberal than its insane government (ON, but swap province for state and that describes OH too)
Itâd also be an absolute powerhouse of workers rights
Someone gets it đ„č
Why are you name dropping Indiana? Indiana ranked 20th in terms of state GDP, and has a higher GDP than both Minnesota and Wisconsin, as well as higher growth. I agree that the mid west would be a power house, but I don't understand why Indiana is a dead weight state.
Because Iâm an Ohioan who likes Michigan and I have to bully a neighbor. Also because the only place Iâve been to in Indiana since I was a teenager was Fort Wayne and you know what if you decide Ohio is worthless because you keep having to visit family in Dayton fair.
Also because it feels like punching down to mock their governmentâs decision to bring back AIDS. But I will stand in solidarity with Gary alongside Cleveland, Chicago, and Detroit as the great hellholes of the Great Lakes that actually arenât even that bad anymore.
This is just the Iroquois Confederacy with extra steps.
The Iroquois confederacy wasnât perfect but it was actually a far bigger influence on American governance than people act like. It was a major nation and should be treated as an equal nation to the colonizers similarly to how we are treating such folks as the Aztec and Inca Empires. Also it still exists which I didnât realize until I was fact checking some statements before making them and found the website of The Hadenosaunee Confederacy. So yeah theyâre still around and their influence helped shape one of the most powerful nations the world has ever seen.
And on that note can we please rename Columbus Ohio to Hiawatha.
This is just the Haudenosaunee with extra steps.
Maybe we should speed up the land back stuff and restore the Haudenosaunee to its rightful place ÂŻ_(ă)_/ÂŻ
Together we can kick out Nestlé and supply the world with affordable drinking water!
You gotta hope Robert Evans doesn't get access to those nukes tho...
Trust me, you don't want Indiana. You really don't.
If it comes down to it, carve out the lakeside and discard the rest. Keep the dunes and miss the crazy racist Christo-fascists...
Good luck getting Quebec to agree to that
*coldest
Lol NYC is easily the only really valuable thing here. Chicago and Philly are way past their prime.
There's also Toronto and Montreal.
And Ottawa! They matter too! Really!
Minneapolis is pretty nice, though not the economic powerhouse of new york
Chicagoâs been making a comeback, despite what people may say about it.
Utah, WTF?
No.well the Atlantic ocean and by extension the baltic sea (russia is not apart of the baltic sea) are just giant salt lakes so why not include the Nordics and baltics and other's
