Cartography Anarchy

Should've organized them alphabetically too

Much better to organize it by water systems, with some additional divisions for the Mississippi system ans consolidation of smaller systems not seperated by mountain ranges.

So the states get gradually smaller as you go north? Got it.

Some choices were definitely made here.

Uh oh. Looks like someone messed with Texas.

Gerrymanderers hate this one trick...

I moved from Pennsylvania back home to Minnesota a decade ago. Didn't expect it to move back to me.

Lol. California just became The State of Los Angeles

I see we've forgotten our non-contiguous siblings.

But more to the point, why not just arrange them alphabetically while we're here?

I'm not sure which state is furthest from it's original position, but Indiana seems quite far from home.

I love this map. It breaks my brain in so many ways!

This hurts.

Can't believe someone finally won the Toledo War. Really didn't expect it to be Rhode Island

Arkansas straight up deleted from existence.

Edit: it’s west of Oklahoma!

Maine be like "You guys changed the map?"

Georgia and Florida are already kind of like that, culturally speaking.

Ooo, I like this! Now I want to see a map where the area of each state is proportional to its population, but still fitting together in a recognizable way.

We are just gonna give South Carolina the outer banks? No. Redraw these lines, pls thnx

South Carolina is Worst Carolina and they deserve nothing but the highway that runs through the state so people can get out quickly.

I'm not sure what giving NJ a giant flaccid water dong that just barely enters Virginia is supposed to symbolize, but I'm here for it.

I think.

There are now two Kansas Cities in Ohio

[ANGRY PENNSYLVANIAN NOISES]

Boooooo!

Edit: I am pleased Ohio is in Oklahoma now.

At first I was pissed thinking I don't want to live in Virginia or Maryland then I was like why the hell is Maryland south of Virginia?

I like this - it puts the Midwest where I assumed it was, before finding out that it's actually where I would want to call the 'Mideast'.

Made New York even richer and more influential, while nerfing most of the competition.

Settle down, Jefferson.

The idea that Connecticut shares a border with Alabama and SC is fundamentally cursed

Do all the people from the state move too, or is this just redrawn boundaries? Because if it's the former, California and Texas are going to be a bad time.

NTY, I do not want to live where Ohio is.

New Jersey moves to Minnesota. That...

Yeah that tracks.

I can't exactly tell but I think this map would have me living in Ohio. So, I'd rather not thank you.

Went from Iowa to West Virginia. The politics are the same, just... Less teeth now.

Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore.

Do any people have to move? Do the governors have to move prior to next election?
