Trudeau would declare Canada an Empire and annex as much of the former USA as he can. He would be declared King in the North. By the war's conclusion, most of the USA would have fallen to the Canadian Empire.

However, a Conservative MP would betray Trudeau for "ignoring his advice at every turn" and take over the Empire as the new King of Canada.

The very Northern part of Florida would most likely join the Southerners. But the Central and Southern would support the Eastern alliance. This would cause those Southern supporters living in Northern Florida to build the Great Wall of Florida to separate themselves from the rest of Florida that supports the Eastern Alliance which would most likely be made up of NY, NJ., PA. DE. and New Eng.

Some in S.Florida want the yellow part in the following map to be the new State of South Fl. - http://www.trbimg.com/img-544692d3/turb ... a-20141021
Story on that - http://www.orlandosentinel.com/features ... -post.html

I would think that South Fl. could easily get away with annexing more counties to the North. It would be like this map - http://www.city-data.com/forum/attachme ... vision.gif

NY has access to the Great Lakes and the Saint Lawrence Seaway, which other states could not impede. It has great deepwater port.
Ample forests, great water supply, lots of arable land with diverse agriculture, strong telecommunications, reliable electric power (plus hydro), existing army bases, and a good percentage of the population are highly educated.

It lacks good supplies of oil and coal, but PA has those. An alliance would protect that southern border and be of mutual benefit.

Central Florida native, here. Central Florida would most certainly prefer the South. Miami and brevard county might prefer the Easterners, but given their isolation, they'll no doubt be forced into a southern confederacy very quickly. Especially given the strategic situation similar to Oklahoma. Because of Oklahoma's relative power and location, Texas will eat her up within a week.

I would imagine the same is true of South Florida. Central Florida is more moderate, but it leans right.

The reality is that Southern Florida is not strategically able to be independent of northern/central Florida and the South.

I think the big players will annihlate each other on the first turn, so they are out.
Then, with war coming, germany regains its former power and, as the fourth Reich, will revive prussia and conquer europe and the rest of the world.
With no real contestant left, they will conquer the rest of the world.

Texas would annex Oklahoma, Arkansas, New Mexico, and Louisiana almost immediately. It would have the easiest time raising an army compared to the other states.

California would likely dominate the other eastern states economically, and eventually raise an army to combat the Texans.

I say that it would turn into an alliance of red states vs. an alliance of blue states, because it's easier to keep your flanks secure that way.

Though I do see CA, IL, NJ, NY, and PA splitting up due to ideological differences between regions.

saw this on Reddit and was intrigued by the Concept, so i thought i would bring it over here to see what you folks thought.

I'm from Central Florida myself, so i reckon we'd be on the frontlines potentially. Florida would probably ally with the former confederacy. Texas would probably take over Oklahoma pretty fast. California and New York would dominate their immediate areas, the West coast and New England, respectively.

What do you guys think? What would happen to your state? Would you return to your native sod?

Man I just spent the last few minutes reading up on that Reddit thread and it is funny as hell.

Puerto Rico would win because people would ignore them for technically not being a state.

NY's pretty liberal through-and-through, and NJ is pretty moderate throughout, so I don't think either one would split. CA might. IL and PA definitely would.

Upstate NY and South Jersey do have a beef about being neglected by NYC and North Jersey.

As for CA, Jefferson is definitely going to bolt.
