People saying "ya it's called natural borders yank" as if they don't come from countries where borders are decided instead by whoever was fucking over whichever disenfranchised minority group at any given time.

Also I actually think borders should be set at watershed boundaries instead of rivers since a lot of cities end up sprawling onto both sides of a river divide. The continental US should have 8 states,

• Longhouse at the North Eastern watersheds,

• Sherman along the southeastern, Tennessee Valley, and lower Mississippi watersheds

• Ohiagan along the Ohio, Great Lakes, Upper Mississippi, and Sourris Red watersheds

• Texas along the Rio-Grande and Texas Gulf watersheds

• Buffalo along the Missouri and Arkansas watersheds

• Sierra along the Colorado and Great Basin watersheds

• California at the California Watershed

• Cascadia at the PNW Watershed
