We’ve been ignoring the Dakotas for too long, they are spreading at an alarming rate!

Tell that to the British royal line
Any royal line for that matter
This is cursed.
I only looked at this for ten seconds and I forgot how the real map looks.
The malignant Dak-ancer has spread to your Cancerlina. The illness stems from exposure to fascist gerrymandering. It's a fatal prognosis.
That's an awful lot of Dakotas. Also, Ohio really ought to be renamed Ohno.
And no Howoming, Whatoming, Wheroming, or Whooming, missed opportunities.
What really gets me is how you swapped Alabama and Mississippi just for kicks.

This magazine has been cracking me up for weeks now. Had to share:

Hmm, trying to understand your username, are you both very intelligent/ talented AND have a lift kit on your vehicle?
This map freaks me out and I don't know why.
Because everything you know is wrong, nothing is real, nothing matters, have a panic attack, you deserve it!
It took me way too long to realize he added States not just mislabeled them.
ok but where’s MASHINGTON
West of Wontanna
Ok, I don't get it.
A recent XKCD was just the blank map with ~64 "states" and the direction to try and name them all.
Fun fact, there are no US states that start with A.
The closest is Arkansas which starts with an "A". Which is pronounced similar to an "A".
Some ChatGPT fun facts
I have an inkling that the two Arkansas are pronounced differently. "Are-Kansas" and "Are-Can-Saw".
Kansas, Akansas, Arkansas was clever my guy. How would you pronounce Akansas tho? A-kansahh? Akansahh? A-Kansas? Akansas? Ahkansas? Ah-kansahh?
Is this what having an aneurysm feels like?
I see Kansas, but where's Kan'tsas?
I think you forgot that Wyoming isn't real
It's just a fancy name for "Dakota[citation needed]".
It just occurred to me that there are no states named East Statename.
English settlers arrived in the east. So wherever they were when they named an area, that was the original, and as they spread west, north or south, they had to add those directions to keep them distinct.
That's because the expansion of the US across the continent was westward.
Looks right to me ╮(•‿• )╭
This makes my brain hurt
I did a couple of cartography classes in college and I can say this is 100% correct.
I have to say I prefer New Mexico A and New Mexico B. It's poetic justice, as the Eastern border of New Mexico was drawn by a drunken surveyor from TX, so we're just getting back what was ours. Take a look at the map, and the history, strange, but true. Also Tennessee and Elevenessee are made for each other.
America's waistline grew a little it seems after thanksgiving
Columbia should be Jefferson. Alternatively Columbia could be Oregon, then Oregon becomes Columbia. Cascadia would also be appropriate for either.
I had a college professor who absolutely would have handed something like this out as a pop quiz.
