That first map is interesting. I would be living in Chesapeake, instead of Maryland. Bowie, Chesapeake. That just sounds weird, like the name of two towns =\

^ They're maps that are either hypothetical or incorrect.

Michigans is odd. Why make it Macinac? Wouldnt you think detroit because not everyone might know much about macinac.

I'd live in Hudson if the US had only 38 states.

If you didn't notice, they're all Native American names. But I would've assumed them to make Hudson some Dutch name shrug.gif

I'd have grown up in Piedmont, which I think has a bit more elegance than Georgia, although it doesn't really lend itself to that southern drawl we know and love.

The second map featured on the West Wing. Good episode, and I like the map.
