It should just follow I-90 all the way over and turn it into a state highway
Massivechussets was right there man
Interesting way of depicting alaska
The way this ignores the curvature of the Earth bothers me SO MUCH. That had better be intentional trolling…
This reminds me of the old maps of the post revolutionary war US where the colonies just kind of claim any land to the west of them to essentially infinity.
This was particularly fun for Connecticut because Pennsylvania was in the way so they just claimed everything west of Pennsylvania but Pennsylvania didn’t have a western border till like 1800ish so I’d assume that was a fun one those two states argued about pre Ohio.
Next level gerrymandering over here!
Looks like they also propose to move Alaska to mexico, for them to become almost neighbor to Texans
It would make visiting them much easier
I think that’s the weirdest part of the map. Hawaii gets a black box, but Alaska and bits of Canada just get tacked on to Mexico.
I mean, “Massivechusetts” was right there.
I mean, early on many states had real claims to the west that looked almost exactly like this.

It’s funny how initial colonial charters just let them claim land all the way to the Pacific without really knowing how far away that was.
Perfect for trafficking drugs and people without crossing state lines 🥰
“Critical Mass-achusetts”
Is that 5 nfl teams in one state?
I think it would be, the New England Patriots, LA Chargers and Rams, Cleveland Browns, Hammond Bears. Maybe Las Vegas Raiders though I think they are far enough away to not be included.
The European mind cannot comprehend this
Connecticut originally claimed land all the way to the Mississippi river
Now we know why it’s called connect-i-cut.
