1. Guess Sarah really will be able to see Russia from her house!

:rofl:

[yurbud]

2. the guy who drew the map missed some schisms....

The California Republic would look more like Chile, including just the coastal green zone.

The inland desert would be a separate country, and would include other Empty Quarter states, Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, & New Mexico.

The Midwest farm & rust belts would be one country, and the East Coast would divide between the Civil War North & South--though there might be some pressure from inland to separate from megalopolis cites on the coasts like the West Coast.

A better treatment of this idea was THE NINE NATIONS OF NORTH AMERICA.

[Warpy]

3. NM belongs more with the west than it does with the southeast

so this map is a crock of absolute shit.

Tied to places like Mississippi and Georgia, this state would soon secede and attempt to rejoin Mexico.

[YOY]

4. Methinks said Russian Professor is a crackpot.

If Alaska ever "went to Russia" there would be a delightful amount of resistance. There is far too much oil there for anyone to let it go too easily.

And Chinese over the west coast? Gimme a fricking break.

The only thing believable here is Japan getting Hawaii.

Did this guy get his polisci degree in a crackerjack box?

On edit...I'd actually like the notion of EU membership...

[Deja Q]

11. In Russia, you don't get degree from crackerjack box. Crackerjack box gives it to you.

:hide:

[YOY]

17. Damn me for not thinking the Russian reverse first...

In Russia crazy crackpot political writings theorize about you!

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

5. I guess I'll have to be shouting "Gung-Ho" again.

But, I doubt the Chinese Marines would have me.

[onehandle]

6. I love the screen cap in your sig.

How many other DUers would know what that's from?

:)

[Deja Q]

12. So far, 2...

And that's a conservative estimate. :blush:

(thx for the compliment, BTW! :D )

[Touchdown]

7. Disneyland!

Well, it should be an option!:(

[Dennis Donovan]

8. If the Northeast joins the EU, I hope they adopt the Netherlands' cannabis policies...

:smoke:

[Soylent Brice]

9. i picked china

gotta go against the grain.

[SidDithers]

10. This Russian Professor doesn't know his ass from his elbow..nt

Sid

[Deja Q]

13. Both are round...

Don't tell me that's not sufficient?

:cry:

[dysfunctional press]

14. i'm not seeing TN, KY, or WV being good fits in the EU...

might as well add SC to the list too.

[Toucano]

24. Well, Ireland got in and they're the hillbillies of Europe.

Or so I like to tease my Irish friends....

[Blue_In_AK]

15. I think Alaska should go to Canada

It really makes more sense since there's a big chunk of Canada between the two parts of Alaska already.

[harun]

16. Canada would be an oil power house, they can use the money to

give their new (American) citizens health care. Since old America didn't.

[Political Tiger]

18. Alaska will NEVER go to Russia!

Not with Sarah Palin keeping an eye on them! ;)

[Deja Q]

20. Well, it's for one of two reasons the dud(e) mentioned Alaska:

1. Like Ensign Chekhov, he thinks everything came from or was invented in Russia...

2. Alaska has lots of delicious oil. :evilgrin:

[Donnachaidh]

19. Atlantic America will split, and anything north of NY will become part of

The Canadian Maritimes.

New England doesn't need those southern states dragging them down. :evilgrin:

[Dreamer Tatum]

21. How accurate was his prediction of the breakup of the Soviet Union? nt

[mnhtnbb]

22. I won't have to move to join the enlarged EU, except I think SC, TN & KY

would be a better fit with The Texas Republic.

[Toucano]

23. Tennessee and West Virginia in the EU?

ROFLMAO!

The Ruskie Prof must have spiked his Vodka with something else.

Then again...Ireland is part of the EU.


:evilgrin:
