And there are tons of Quebec plates driving around New Hampshire. Mostly for the cheap booze I assume.

And it borders Quebec too. Unlike Louisiana.

I’m gonna mix most of the interior ones up and totally forget that Montreal isn’t called Quebec.

Now the hard mode is Mexico. They have enough states to be confusing and not enough presence in English internet to be memorable

I could have gotten Baja California and Puebla. 50:50 on Yucatán, because Quintana Roo (which I don’t believe I knew existed, even after 11 years of Spanish classes in the US- that’s straight up shameful) is also on the peninsula.

Holy shit, there’s 31 states. I am going to do some reading because I did not realize how little I knew. I’ve even taken college level Latin American History classes as part of a Spanish minor, but they focused on precolumbian history and American political influence (euphemistically).

The spot near the border is called Toronto, everything else is Alaska junior. There is a small swamp somewhere called “Quebec”. Up north is something beautiful called the Aurora Rae Jepsen.

How’d I do?

It is actually, Canada is the state. The US is the weird one with multiple states.

Canadia just uses the fancy rich people word for state: province.

East to west along the US border is Quebec, Ontario, Manitoba?, Alberta?, and BC. I think.

Then there’s Nunavut. And maybe Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Newfoundland? I’m realizing I have no idea how many provinces Canada has

Edit: Looked it up and I definitely missed a few

My rage at them getting New York wrong is only quelled in knowing that they pissed off many Pennsylvanians in the process.

With the number of hockey players and associated rivalries churned out by that circle I question the OP’s Canadian credentials.

Cartography Anarchy

!cartographyanarchy@lemm.ee

Create post

A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.

Rules:

Don’t be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.

No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.

We are agents of chaos I’ve created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named “mapporncirclejerk”

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”.
