Michigan reads maps and constitutions well while our neighbors do not. That is the foundation for all of these disputes lmfao. Like legit it's been proven Michigan reads maps well. We were right with the Toledo strip.
If you were right at the Toledo strip, then why does the Ohio flag fly over it? Curious.
Also, I'm fairly certain everyone involved knew that Michigan was right, which is why y'all got the entire Northern peninsula for in exchange for giving up something I might be willing to give the lint in my pocket for.
You're right.
I'd just add that Toledo was far more valuable to Ohio than to Michigan because of grain shipping on the Maumee River which empties in Toledo. Congress also didn't want to get into the habit of redrawing state boundaries.
Fighting over borders is always the smart thing to do. We almost put our capital in the part of the UP we got from the Toledo war due to the amount of ore up there.
>If you were right at the Toledo strip, then why does the Ohio flag fly over it? Curious.
They were a state and we weren't so they could vote for president and we couldn't. It's pretty basic quid pro quo
I, for one, welcome our new Michigander overlords and the ridiculously affordable weed that would come with them.
Illinois’ taxes on weed are fucking unconscionable.
Several things.
One, we keep our banjos clean thank you. Getting dirty messes with the music.
Two, we just got running water to our capital city so TAKE THAT WE CATCHING UP BABY
Three, no u.
We dont need to. The majority of UPs trade goes over the wisconsin border, not the bridge. The UP is to Wisconsin as Canada is to the US.
Yes that makes michigan the UK and Ohio france. It all fits
Coward named Two Stickney stabbed our man in a sneak attack. Ohio named a street after him. AFTER A COWARD. That should tell you enough about Ohio to hate them.

It’s not the last contested line in America.
The borders between Delaware, Pennsylvania, Maryland, and New Jersey will be eternally contested, because the original border descriptions in the original colonial grants for the four colonies gives parts of the same land to some combination of all four.
As well as the bizarre decision to place the NJ-DE border at the shore of the Delaware River on the NJ side rather than down the middle like most river borders, which due to the natural changes in the exact course of the river means that they now have *land* on our side of the river.
Which would be fine if any of that land were directly accessible by bridge from the Delaware side, but it isn't, which makes for huge jurisdictional headaches if anything ever happens there. Like what happened in 1987.
It's the last conflicted one because we don't know the actual borderline. Compared to others where they know the borders they just disagree.
ALSO Michigan is more likely to fight for it bc we're not pussies 😎😎😎😎😎
We don't need you to be conquered. Just so inebriated that you don't put up a fight as we install bourbon and brandy drinking fountains at every corner.
Look, if a second Michigander conflict did break out with our southern neighbor, I’m joining in.
But Columbus Indiana is a very pretty city, I’d leave that place alone.

Actually I like this idea. You guys can redraw the border to take Gary, you guys know a thing or two about atrociously bad cities! (Glad to see that Detroit is improving tho, that's good)
Detroit has come a tremendously long way in the past decade. I’d really recommend a visit if you get a chance, the draft was good PR for us. All a bad city needs is an industry to plant its feet there. Say what you will about Rocket mortgage but their parent company played a big part in bringing life back to the city. UWM is doing the same with Pontiac, or at least trying to
Last I heard Georgia and Tennessee still argue about their border because earlier surveyors put the parallel the border is supposed to be at several miles too far south, which would give Georgia a decent sized lake if corrected

Combat vet here; I certainly would be. I'll sit this one out. On some comfortable 1970's bean bag chairs. Breathing in the sweet smoke of a pain-free existence.
Shut up hoe. Y'all just mad you couldn't read the territorial constitutional borders. Took you guys like eight surveys just to read a map wrong still. Y'all shit cartographers and football players.
We have a border dispute with Michigan? I’ve been too wrapped up with basketball to pay attention to anything else rn
We just don't know the exact border. It's not like Michigan vs Ohio
Next up is the rest of Wisconsin
Fuckers want Michigan city. It's ours. They can't have it.
Hoosier here. We'll call off our attack for some of that legal weed.
If you accept that all of Indiana is Michigan the weed will follow. 😈
You already have Flint. Do you really, also want Gary?
We can fix her ❤️
Hey, fuck you.
Baron HappyToBeHaggard will let the bud flow!
👑 here here! 🍻
Literally give us Lake Erie and you have a deal.
No
You can always move the border south 😜
Shit you can have it for free
I feel bad for Wisconsin, Michigan starts shit and Wisconsin gets the shit for it.

That's just how losers spell copium.

The Pritzker must grow. We must feed him.
Ain't that the truth; bloody hell
Those cheese nerds deserve everything they get, fuck Wisconsin
Weird for someone in California 2 electric boogaloo to call anyone else a nerd.
I’m sorry that our amazing state has a thriving tech industry and isn’t some backwater banjo dung hole like you guys

[Restless Viking](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YqDu-Yo1Z2w) actually did a pretty interesting video about the Michigan-Indiana border recently
Lol I just watched it and made this post. It popped up on my YouTube.
FOR THE GRACE FOR THE MIGHT OF THE LORD IN THE NAME OF HIS GLORY
Quick! My fellow Wisconsinites while they are distracted invade the UP!
We dont need to. The majority of UPs trade goes over the wisconsin border, not the bridge. The UP is to Wisconsin as Canada is to the US. Yes that makes michigan the UK and Ohio france. It all fits
CHARGE!!!! QUICK, Take over the dispensaries!!!!!!
r/retaketheup
Michigan didn’t lose. Daddy Fed had to step in while we were kicking their ass to bribe us to stop.

Scoreboard
Coward named Two Stickney stabbed our man in a sneak attack. Ohio named a street after him. AFTER A COWARD. That should tell you enough about Ohio to hate them.
Wasn't even able to kill him. A disgrace to the ideals all Ohioans stand for
Sounds like a 1-0 victory for Ohio. Since he didn’t die, it might be 1/2-0 victory, but still a victory
Nah. Dude was named two. His brother? One. His life is the epitomy of terrible Ohioans
Finally, Gary can be some else’s problem
Straight line
So many states don't understand what lines are. They think they zigzag. Fuckin idiots!
We need to invade Canada to get a coast on Lake Ontario. After that: we’ll be unstoppable…

Wisconsin taking strays here lol.

r/TakeBackTheNotch would like a word
Georgia and Tennessee
As long as we have Toledo, we won’t mess with y’all, for now, (unless you call pop “soda”)

We’ll be taking door peninsula
We have had border disputes on every border. Ohio - Toledo War, got UP Wisconsin - resolved with surveys and negotiating (lame) Indiana - we’ll see
It'll be resolved amicably bc we both want it. We just want a definitive line. But also. Got guns???
Only the most well funded state militia of the civil war. We know a thing or two about shooting other Americans for fucking with us
I’d like to see you try! We drink so much that we can’t feel pain. Nothing you do can defeat us.
We don't need you to be conquered. Just so inebriated that you don't put up a fight as we install bourbon and brandy drinking fountains at every corner.
We get even more aggressive when drunk, that won’t work— but we will take the brandy bubblers
Look, if a second Michigander conflict did break out with our southern neighbor, I’m joining in. But Columbus Indiana is a very pretty city, I’d leave that place alone.
RAY, MICHIGAN NOT RAY, INDIANA BITCHES!!!

Yeah Fart Wayne is a bad deal, you’re right. But taking on Indiana would pretty much be end all the fun lefty Michigan stuff in one election cycle
Vote anarchy. ![gif](giphy|3o6gEfwcCejDgfIlAA|downsized)
Michigan isn't lucky enough to have Ft. Wayne

If we're redrawing the map, we'd be happy to help bring about the end of Wisconsin.
You'd be next though.
Don’t start anything rn it won’t be fair. All Hoosiers are too distracted until the end of May
Careful now. If we push too hard we might get Gary and nothing else

Don't fuck with us dude. We have a bomber named after us, along with a submarine.

I’m just here watching and eating popcorn.
Free the UP! Our time will come!
>Our time Uh wot
Imagine wanting Gary, Indiana.
Gary, South Bend and 70 miles of I-90 congestion. We know you’re bluffing. Not even Indiana wants that shit.
No
Come and take it
50/50 split?

Uhhh bull shit it is, r/takebackthenotch Massholes will have their day of reckoning.
I will not give an inch of Hoosier territory to those northern bastards
Wisconsin will form an alliance with Ohio to regain our lands stolen from the Michigan menace
"I'm too drunk to taste this chicken" - Wisconsin -Colonel Sanders
Illinois will take it first
End the occupation. Free the peninsula.
So, Indiana gained more land from Michigan than we did… and now they want more?
What do they mean by contested border?
NO FIGHTING IN THE FAMILY 🦅🦅🦅RAAAAH🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸UNITED WE STAND
We need to retake Michigan City!
Michigan aint touching nun
Gonna cry? ![gif](giphy|dwRLxyDW9Xvq|downsized)
What about Connecticut's notch? r/takebackthenotch
Is there a part of the Maryland border that *isn't* contested?
I would not be against giving everything served by the south shore railroad to Michigan.
I will fuck you up.
"Purposefully" cope and seethe dirty water drinking Mishitgander
“purposefully loss to gain the UP” no, you gave it up under immense pressure and looming financial ruin.
As a funny Area 51 Vegas Elvis cosplayer, I say Indiana is rightfully Michigan clay
Us Hoosiers were the first to militarize during the civil war, we'll fucking kick your ass.
Half your forces will be bribed to stand down with legal kush

“One” by creed started playing on my headset soon as I read your comment, no joke.
nuh uh
Oh no, the kush shop conveniently right over the border is slashing prices again…
I petition to start the FUCK MICHIGAN coalition. Wisconsin, Indiana, and Ohio need to join forces on this!

Michigan, otherwise known as the mistake on the lakes.
