I have issues with Hawaii and Alaska placements on this map.
I feel like this map isn't just putting them there to show they are part of the country; this map assumes we physically moved the states.
I’m fine with this explanation. Honestly, they should be closer to home anyway.
their stripes should reflect their actual location, not where their insets are in relation to the rest of the map.
And shrunk Alaska and physically moved Mexico...or air-dropped Alaska and Hawaii onto it.
I like the idea of dropping a couple states onto another country.

Why do all the states have different names? Aren't they all called America now?
Nah, the king simply added America to the pre-existing names since they refuse to assimilate blue states. Cali-merica, Ameriiwai, New Yamerica, Washingamerica, and so on.
Calimerica is actually a cool name, I've decided
We should do this just to mess with Europeans. We'll relate it to the unit circle and claim it's metric.

Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don’t message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can’t believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say “take time to grow and come back when you are ready”.
