Where are you from, kid?

Which of the 11 American nations do you live in?

I'm from New France.

I'm calling this map out as illegitimate because it groups us with NY...

Far West. I didn't realize how much of California we have. I was born in the Midlands, but grew up in the Deep South, which I vacated with a quickness once I graduated.

The left coast it is!

I always suspected the entire central valley 5/99 corridor was not in sync with the left coast - this confirms my suspicions.

Born and until 12 looks like New France, then moved to Greater Appalachia.

I currently live in the Deep South.
