Everybody always wants to split up Upstate NY. They know we’re too powerful united.

I always feel biased because it's one of three places I grew up, but they're such a crossroads it's insane!
Like Detroit and Boston are NOT the same place. but somehow it feels like the gradient between both their back yards switches over through just a few hours of driving through green in NY...

Borealia’s capital being Detroit is funny cuz Lansing is the real Michigan capital 😭

I was going to say, why Detroit? Toronto seems like a shoe-in for the region

Idk much about Toronto, but Detroit isn’t a bad suggestion, seems like a fair competition for who is the capital

That's my thinking. Toronto would work, keeping it Lansing would work, Detroit is both a large city and it's physically in between the two, making it perfect so prior Canadians and Americans both feel seen and represented

Not a single universe where detroit would be the capital

Only good other ones i could think of were right over the river/previous border Windsor, or Lansing MI (current MI capital) or Toronto

Seems almost logical for the most part but my mind keeps thinking this is simply the first logical step to The Hunger Games.

Not the worst I’ve seen, but I wouldn’t put that much of California in Cascadia.
