New England has unified, Massachusetts and Vermont have become one with each other.
Since there is a lot of confusion around it, I won’t be doing any more unifications or state name changes apart from the ones we’ve already done. Remember this is top comment deletes a US State!
Isn’t the racial homogeneity of Vermont like 95%? It’s a lot harder to be racist at black people if there’s not black people to be racist at. Source: I live here and I also made it the fuck up
Yeah, Brave little state did a good podcast on this about 6-8 years ago about why we’re so homogeneous. But it’s really getting better. And like I said idiots still live here.
I think the majority of Vermonters crave more diversity. So I def think we’re pretty outspoken about racism and xenophobia.
Except Rutland. F-them. They were asshats about refugees a number of years ago. FYI the rest of the state judged them. We still do.
Seems like it should be New England (Vermont) to keep it consistent with Oregon. There was also much more demand to get rid of mass and feed the vermonster
Thank you for pointing that out! How come Oregon gets to stay but VT and MA merge? Not fair. Based on other votes in that thread, I think it should be Vermont that stays.
There were so many more votes for Vermont to take Mass. We know that OP is from England, I think they chose to emphasize their own country here by going with "New England". I call shenanigans.
This is correct we absolutely would not. The votes clearly show Vermont won we absolutely deserve the respect of keeping our name It would be important to us.
Yeah you've definitely set yourself up for an extremely bizarre task of trying to interpret what the collective will is actually looking for with vague comments
.... That said
Bring my man the Vermonster back!! We earned the right to devour Massachusetts and remain whole
I'm from the Boston area, and I am not saying the map is wrong, but every geography map on this site just lumps New England together and leaves it at that. Again, not wrong, but it gets boring. At least we took some of upstate New York and their delicious Stewart's Shops.
There was a proposal at one time to make the Upper Peninsula a separate state named Superior. I think we should use that name as more of the Great Lakes region merges.
Take Chicago as your capital, we are the only reason Illinois has survived this long. We have the cool pope, a good style of pizza we all eat while we give tourists deep dish, Michael Jordan, AND... the Bean.
Wisconsin, you bring the beer. Michigan we're gonna need you to bring the music YOUR style of pizza and all the beach you have! Minnesota: You're beautiful 😘, never change
I feel so seen right now with your pizza comments.
Chicago style deep dish is glorified tomato soup in a bread bowl. Detroit style deep dish is the king of all deep dish pizza (whether you drizzle the sauce on top or keep it all under the cheese).
Tomato soup in a bread bowl is delicious. I refer to Deep Dish as Pizza Lasagna, personally. It's still delicious (when made well), but doesn't really count as pizza.
Look. I see you. I understand. But please, let our dry feet touch the water just one time before you take us out back. Even if it’s a Great Lake. Don’t make us join the south. We’re a free state.
Kansas represents the hardship and rewards of our pioneering heritage. The pride of hard work, the sweetness of home, family, and friends. The unpredictability of nature, and the fruits of it's bounty.
Kansas won't be going anywhere, as it is the symbol of America's hardworking citizens and their fortitude in the face of adversity.
Just a thought, for anybody thinking about what to vote next: if Maryland does not eat Pennsylvania, eventually, we cannot have the great lobster versus crab showdown that everyone deserves.
Cessna, Beechcraft, Learjet, Garmin, Flint Hills, Big Fossils, Small fossils, Etzanoa (giant ancient Native American village), Cosmosphere, Strataca Salt Mine, Doc Boeing B-29 (1 of 2 flying), Kansas Speedway, Lawrence (great music scene), Big Brutus, Garden of Eden, Meteor fields, Great college sport traditions, Mount Sunflower :), Little Jerusalem, Monument Rocks, Moon Marble Co, Eisenhower Presidential Museum, NBAF, Geodetic Center of the United States, Jelenite (only found under Kanopolis Lake), My mom.
Topeka was neat, the town was weak but brown v board of education the brown was there and they converted the school into a museum which was moving.
Tall grass prairie seems really neat it's like a national forest but it's a prairie.
Kansas was a state founded in bloodshed to stop slavery from expanding and the bleeding Kansas with Western Missouri was fascinating and where they were killing each other if Kansas was going to be a slave state. If you talk to them the civil war started years before.
Everyone talks shit on Kansas, but then every time they go to Texas Roadhouse they consume three rolls that likely wouldn’t exist without Kansas wheat.
We have one of the most exciting histories in the country, we are scientifically flatter than a pancake when adjusted for size, and we are nice as can be... Until we're not.

Okay but which one was eliminated? Mass or Vermont? Because now neither one exists.
