Virginia became "vergina" for me.
That's called Jamais vu, the opposite of Deja vu ;)
Westsiiiiide W
Well this is just inaccurate.
North North North North Virginia should be North North North East North North Virginia, and that propagates through The State Formerly Known As New Hampshire and The State Formerly Known As Maine, too.
North North North North Virginia would be Old Canada.
Edit: I guess technically it would be North North East North North North Virginia; the labeling would track backwards from the current state to Virginia. East North Virginia would be 1 state east of "North Virginia", for example, which would be The State Formerly Known As Rhode Island.
I've spent way too much time thinking about this already.
California should be westest Virginia
This is a dad joke so powerful you need a license to carry it.
*Hawaii
Pacific Virginia
Agreed.
They list Ohio as "West North Virginia" when it should either be "North West Virginia" (North of [West Virginia]) or "West North North Virginia" (West of [North North Virginia, AKA, Pennsylvania])
I'm still trying to bring back Mega Virginia.
You know what, I'm down. I think life in Mega Virginia will probably be better than life in Indiana now. Can we also do Long Massachusetts?
West West West West West West West West Egypt needs to work on their energy grid
If Virginia ever splits again we're gonna be in for some pain
Not calling Hawaii "Wet Virginia" is a tiny blemish that is only visible because it's the only one
Virginian resident here, WE OWN YA'LL!

They should have called your state East Virgina
No
"OD Virginia"
Recognize!
/we are the "Old Dominion"

I really like how North Carolina is now South Virginia
Alaska should be northest westest Virginia.
Or coldest Virginia
Lol I love Hawaii and alaska
I think the progression should be in folowing order: Virginia - West Virginia - North West Virginia - West North West Virginia. And so on
So just prefixing the one closer. It looks way better(silier) and actualy explains what state is this one next to.
Well, Virginia should be renamed “East Virginia” based on this logic.

This is so stupid 🤣 now do country's
BIG VIRGINIA 🤣🤣
The United States according to Tars Tarkas, Jeddack of Mars.
...my sister-cousins'll vouch for west west virginia...
We now need a Virginia-based coordinate system. Lats and longs centered on Virginia.
I disagree. We should call Texas: Big Virginia. We should call Alaska: Bigger Virginia.
US Virgin Islands: nah we're good
U.S. Virgin(ia) Islands
Almost Heaven.
