How dare you split Michigan logically!
Can you explain to the non-US citizen the split in Michigan? If you want I can explain the split in Lorraine, France in exchange (^_^)
The state of Michigan exists on both sides of the great lakes (which are effectively freshwater oceans, containing their own maritime economies, marine salvage operations, maritime weather and even famous lost ships) so there’s the Michigan mainland which contains major cities like Detroit, Lansing, Ann Arbor and Grand Rapids, but then there’s the “upper penninsula” which is heavily wooded and some consider a continuation of the “north woods” of Wisconsin. Map for context:
Thanks.
As promise, here is the explanation for the split in Lorraine. Lorraine is a region in easter France that is culturally split in two. One part is of Frank culture, like Paris and French tradition, the other as a culture much closer to Germany, Luxembourg and german speaking countries. It also as a germanic traditional as local languages used to be some german dialect rather that french dialect.
This part of Lorraine which is roughly the Moselle county used to be called germanic Lorraine but this term started to be ambiguous when France lost Alsace, the very famously german-cultured region at the border of France and Germany, and the Moselle county in 1871.
After the great war, Alsace-Moselle was part of France again, but as some of its social laws where better than France at the time, it was decided to keep them in place and not to apply the laws that where voted in France when it was part of German. Because of that, today Lorraine is separed not only culturally but also by laws in place. Go to Metz, on the germanic part, and have two more non-work holiday as in Nancy in the french. In Nancy and Metz, social contribution are calculated differently and important laws for France are not applied no the german side : Chuck and State are not separated there.
Of course, French State work on every day following that law but in Moselle and Alsace, man of worship can be pay with public money.
All that with having Nancy and Metz separated by 50 km and both being part of Lorraine.neat, thanks!
The very top parts of Texas and new York that touch are both part of Michigan. The disconnected bit in Texas is called the Upper Peninsula, and that’s basically Canada if you ask people (or listen to them talk).
As a Canadian I would cut out part of Texas at the top for “Americans that think they are Canadian”
But it’s pretty accurate
I was about to say you could take the top third out of “Texas” and label it “Wisconsin” or “Ohio”
Ok but you need to give us Alberta as Canadians that think they’re American
As much as I hate Minnesotans for thinking they are us
I would gladly make that trade
Please God no. I don’t want to go.
Some Sri Lankans in Chi =(
I mean I’ve seen worse “The US according to foreigners” maps. At least all of those regions contain the states their named for.
Also you can see Alaska in the lower left behind the logo
This is what those “state vs state battle royale” fantasy war simulators look like after a couple rounds
are they wrong tho
Honestly not far off
If you had to condense it for a videogame, this would cover most bases.
Los Santos, Liberty City, Vice City.
And the big empty bit in the middle to hide the loading.
That’s just Red Dead.

Come on guys, Ohio is above Texas
Politically. Yeah that’s about right
It certainly feels that way sometimes.
I adore that Sinhala script. Fruit with bums.
Hey how do you know it? It’s a tiny population in the whole world who can recognise it. Are you Sri Lankan?
I am about as Dutch as they come, but I’m also apparently Irish (short). Anyway, an ex is Sri Lankan. My current husband (current husband? How many do I plan on having?) is Tamil. I have heard many sides to the fight. Love that fruity bum script, though.
looks about right…
💀
If you had to divide the mainland US into 4 “regions” this is probably the best way to split it.
I contest this by pointing out that Arizona is basically the grumpy younger sibling of California and is not allowed to hang out with Texas.
the four corners states all going to go live with the pacific side of the family except for Utah who thinks the devil’s lettuce has corrupted them all
Yeah, we also dont really want Utah cause well who does. The US could collapse into a warlord era and Utah would at best be turned into a Neutral we dont want it ground.
