The United States but I redrew the borders so as many as possible are represented

Look at all those tumors.
yep
If we can land-lock those new red states that touch the oceans then I’m in.
What do y'all think about the city state concept?
I've been saying this should be done. Cities have hijacked all the states at this point. We need to cut them out of our states like a tumor. Let them fair on their own.
I actually think about it in terms of geography. I'm an avid fan of strategy games and city builders and have militaries and architecture that I think will be what America will look like in the future. I'll map it out and post it.
👍
It’s makes perfect sense.
I think the city-state concept would work well. Give each city state (city plus metro area; grouping counties together, say by 10M) one senator and one rep. The traditional states keep their two senators and house reps as the percentage of population. That would gut the city's impact on the rest of the state it formally belonged (dictated) to but still giving some albeit dilluted representation.
I love how Wyoming doesn't exist
I don't understand Oklahoma being a city state.
Why turn OK into a city-state? That's a lot of territory to give over to OKC.
I just felt like it would be something Oklahoma would do. Could be wrong though, I could always make a version 2.
Oklahoma is basically native territory now…
The eastern half, yes. Anyone can live on that side, but it means the natives are subjected to tribal jurisdiction for their crimes rather than the state. In theory natives can have a more lenient sentence than non-native criminals who commit the same crime.
I know. I’m not saying I agree but okies I believe are some of the safest people in the country. What do you think?
I don't like having separate punishments/laws for people. It hasn't been an issue yet (that I know of), but I can see it becoming a problem some day. South Africa and other places where there's separate laws for different people based on race is not something this country should ever emulate.
I agree. There was recently a double murder and the pos fled to the reservation. Something must and will change
It's your own creative project so do what you want! I like how there are small city-states encompassing the metros, but personally I would make the states smaller rather than larger. I think one should be able to easily drive to one's own state capitol. I'm from CA and driving 8 hours whenever people were putting on protests at the capitol wasn't feasible for me or the southern half of the state.
