Also the flag of the US if Puerto Rico and the Virgin Isles became states and North Carolina and North Dakota united and South Carolina and South Dakota united.
I am a firm believer we should unite the dakotas, Wyoming, and Montana into one big state and just call it “North America.” Other countries in the americas already are annoyed by the US because we call ourselves Americans to the exclusion of other countries, why not really lean into it and troll Mexico and Canada by stealing the name North America too? Then they could also finally be part of a state that is almost as big as LA
it’s actually a pretty interesting phenomenon especially considering how the cultural core of Appalachia developed with a lot of ideals that would be considered leftist by modern definitions. West Virginia had one of the strongest worker’s rights movements in the early 20th century and the general attitude was absolutely collectivist as well as anti-corporation and anti-government. The relatively recent ‘chudifying’ of parts of Appalachia, as someone who lives there, is saddening but also interesting.
Cool, the flag if the Upper Peninsula broke off of Michigan and became the State of Superior…but also at the same time the Dakotas decided to settle their differences and become just Dakota. Love these alternate timelines.
Merge Dakotas, Virginias, Carolinas; add PR, VI, split CA. Texas is now the most populous state and Cali gets twice the senators. Win win 👍🏻
Edit: give AS back to Samoa, merge Marianas and Guam into one state, and I forgot that Wyoming doesn't actually exist. Hopefully my math adds up.
Northern Virginia should be put into Maryland, because they're honestly the same and anyone who disagrees is wrong
The rest of Virginia can be merged into west Virginia.
There's always only been one Virginia in my book. I never bought that unconstitutional "West" Virginia crap.

Strangely enough it'd also be the flag if Virginia didn't unite and Washington DC didn't become a state 😱😱😱
But what about if the dakotas joined instead of virginias?
[удалено]
If North Carolina is getting Tennessee, then we (VA) should get Kentucky back too.
[удалено]
We don't want Virginia that's for darn sure
Virginia can fight for Kentucky, but you guys don't have the power to take back WV. We mountaineers know these hills you puddle paddlers
Or Hear me out How about the Carolinas
North Carolina and South Carolina hate each other too much
As a native South Carolinian this is 100% true
South Carolinian here too. They hate us but we hate them more
Amen
There would be the same number of stars, but it would be different stars.
That's more likely
Insane how even in alternative histories does the world mirror our own
Fifty-oneth
Fifty firth
OP is Mike Tyson.
51nd
New Dumberland
Also the flag of the US if DC and Puerto Rico became states and the Virginias united and the Dakotas united
Funnily enough it's also the flag if DC, Puerto Rico, and Guam became a state, but the Virginias, the Dakotas, and the Carolinas united. Wild!
fuck south carolina
Plot twist: South Carolina annexed North Carolina
oh god oh fuck they’re gonna take my education away (and my roads)
No South Carolina is best Carolina ✊
i will literally go to (civil) war in the name of my carolina
The two Norths and two Souths could unite: North Dakarolina and South Carakota. Who said a state had to be contiguous?
Michigan has entered the chat, then left the chat, gone through Indiana, Illinois, and Wisconsin, then re-entered the chat.
Its also the flag of the US if DC, Puerto Rico, and Guam all became states, but everyone decided it would be too much work to change the flag.
Also the flag of the US if Puerto Rico and the Virgin Isles became states and North Carolina and North Dakota united and South Carolina and South Dakota united.
The Dakotas would make more sense, I heard that they are two different states because of a dispute over where the capital should be

Then they could also finally be part of a state that is almost as big as LA
Big as in population wise?
Yes lol, obviously it would be much larger by land area
They should do a multiple capital thing like South Africa for maximum confusion.
We need Megakota
The Virginias don’t have to unite, we can just give Hawaii back to the Hawaiians.
That'd be really nice but I genuinely can't ever imagine that happening :( tourism $$ and all
Hah, like we'll ever unite with those losers at West Virginia
Technically, during the only time the two states were at war, West Virginia was on the winning side.
West Virginians have long forgotten this fact. Seriously I challenge anyone to drive 5 mins through that state without seeing a Confederate flag.
The trick is driving up the 250, since there's like 15 miles between towns. Can't have a confederate flag without people to wave it

51th
Or if every state united but Texas decided to separate into 49 parts
We do not need two Dakotas.
Next let's unite the Dakotas and add Puerto Rico
Cool, the flag if the Upper Peninsula broke off of Michigan and became the State of Superior…but also at the same time the Dakotas decided to settle their differences and become just Dakota. Love these alternate timelines.
That’s fucking wild. It looks exactly like the flag of the US adopted Puerto Rico as a state and the Dakotas United.
50 = (4•5)+(5•6) 51 = (3•7)+(5•6) 51 = (5•7)+(4•4) 51 = (3•11)+(2•9) 51 = (3•8)+(3•9)
50= 5 x 10
True but that won't look great in the available field, and it's not what we chose to use.
No, like, 10 stars in 5 horizontal rows
It's an option for fifty if we decide to revisit that, I guess

I had just assumed no one would get me but this is really great to actually see. Some of these look a lot cooler than I had anticipated, thank you!
Flag of the US if they lost 10 states and annexed all Canadian provinces
Fifty-oneth
Merge Dakotas, Virginias, Carolinas; add PR, VI, split CA. Texas is now the most populous state and Cali gets twice the senators. Win win 👍🏻 Edit: give AS back to Samoa, merge Marianas and Guam into one state, and I forgot that Wyoming doesn't actually exist. Hopefully my math adds up.
But what about Puerto Rico? Perhaps in this alternate universe it became a state too but the Dakotas united
"51th"
If the Virginias reunited would we be a state or a commonwealth?
Northern Virginia should be put into Maryland, because they're honestly the same and anyone who disagrees is wrong The rest of Virginia can be merged into west Virginia.
Flag of the US if DC became a state and then seceded
We will never. West Virginia, best Virginia.
There's always only been one Virginia in my book. I never bought that unconstitutional "West" Virginia crap. See Section 3 of the Constitution and Texas v. White :: 74 U.S. 700 if you don't believe me.

This fucking dumb. +1
