This map made me think that I'd love to teach US history and just drop this map on a bunch of 16yos.
"You must label all the states, I won't answer any questions."
And just wait for the first WTFs
Close enough.
This is fantastic

The northern one has no r.
My blind ass. I guess we're stuck with the incorrectly pronounced Arkansas and a cheap knockoff
It's like a stretch station wagon, you can do it, but why?

Shouldn't have made a bunch of states rectangles then
Checkmate
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
"Texas"
Well that's a very generous description based on the current discourse of personal freedoms being violated
I think we could make it easier for many by drawing a diagonal line from the top of Columbia on the west coast to Louisiana in the south east and just label the whole area "Old Mexico".
Then when people start yelling at you go back to where you came from or learn to speak American they can return to Europe where their ancestors were born...
