Elaborate. Is there some kind of old law buried under stacks of amendments and court battles that everyone forgot about after they split?
As we all know, WV seceded from Virginia during the Civil War. However, this occurred in a session of a legislature-in-exile (essentially) and not from Richmond directly. The law is that a state can secede if it has permission of the state it wants to leave. Some contend that Virginia never technically gave this consent, and so WV is illegal.
I mean this legal issue was settled 150 years ago, but that's as dubious as WV's existence gets.

Oh, honestly, I'm just joking around. I'm fine with Kanawha remaining an independent state, even if the borders don't look as nice.

I honestly don't like many US state flags. South Carolina's is aesthetically pleasing, sure, but I just don't like the overall design. Honestly, I like Big Red more.
The only state flags I really like are Texas, Alabama, Florida, California, and New Mexico. The other ones I either just tolerate or are sick of (cough bedsheets cough).

Petition to get the word "flags" added to the title of the thread.

Terrible idea in practice? Yes.
Is it funny? Yes.
