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".

Feel like Mexico is getting a raw deal here.
Why? They just got back all their former territory, and then some. As well as taking the largest economy in the US, and most of the largest military resources. Oh, and a fair amount of our aerospace industries. Also an absolute shit ton of oil refineries.

Oh god no. Canada, my querido vecino. Can we please trade a few states? I'll give you Texas for Maine. ¿Trato?
Is there some way we can ensure Ohio goes to Mexico?
btw, am in Michigan.
Hell no. Or rather I should say: ni cuando el infierno se congele.
But I don't want to learn French. I can struggle through with Spanish though.
Don't worry the Rest Of Canada doesn't really bother to learn French anyway. It only works the other way around. Unless you want to be a politician or move to Quebec, and even then...
I should know, I'm a native French speaker. Doesn't it show? Did you have to learn French to understand what I just wrote? No, because WE are the ones that have to learn English.

Acadians, Québécois, and Franco-Ontarians are more bilingual. All French speakers.
Sorry if I kind of broke the joke but, here's some facts.

I feel like Nebraska would burn the place down with them in it at the thought of having healthcare that isn't advertised on Facebook.
Wasn't an American Dad episode? I vaguely recall a character that speaks in a Canadian dialect with a Spanish accent.
Utah should be in Canada+ imo. It would mess with the nice straight-ish border over there, but then if that's what we're going for the Carolinas should be in Mexico+. Also Maryland and Delaware are apparently independent?
Honestly, I think Mexico has a better chance cleaning up the cartels than the US have cleaning up, well... Anything.
If Mexico does that, this map looks pretty good
Without America, cartels don't have income.
Or guns. :/ There's literally one single gun store in Guadalajara for reference.
We have 4 in a town of 170k... Not including pawn shops.
I mean joining Mexico sounds better than continuing to let Alabama be Alabama. We’d probably improve our public health, public transit, and healthcare options.
Maybe we could finally get rid of our racist, shitty constitution from the early 1900s (longest constitution in the world!)
YEAH CANADAAAA
Canada! Fuck yeah!
...comin' again to save the motherf*ckin day, eh?..
One generation later, none of the Americans remained. Having been removed from their threat for so long, they were now completely devoid of the natural defenses that were necessary to protect them from the devastation of Kinder Surprise eggs.
I think Mexico should get Alaska. Just to further increase the distance between it and it's country.
Give Sarah Palin's village to Argentina. Because that would be funny.
Sure, but who gets Hawaii???
Don't they have the Union Jack on their flag?
The Great Polynesian Empire.
After becoming independent from France, Tahiti will conquer all of the Polynesian Triangle and establish a maritime domination of the Pacific.
Hawaii.
Japan Strikes Back
Fun fact, Hawai'i tried to ally with Japan first, and they said no.
Can't wait to see an indie film about a small town Nebraska story shot in sepia because it's south of the border.
Nebraska is north of the border.
You may have mixed it up with El Kansas.
Cansas
You have to adjust the spelling a bit. Eg. we spell it Corea not Korea. lol
(Funnily enough, "cansas" means "you're tiring" in Spanish as in "¡Ahh, cómo cansas!")
Nebraska story shot in sepia because it’s south of the border.
It's not though? Unless the map was changed between when you posted your comment and the one I'm seeing now.
I think they confused Nebraska and Kansas?
About that, how come Canada doesn't have a cold blue colored filter?
Happy cake day!
is it? oh well thank you ! I think I have some left in the fridge too, i'll have some.
Wouldn't theirs also be sepia? You know. Maple syrup shaded.
Mapia.

I live in a red state now
Yeah, but this version is better.
I'd be happy to have Mexico right next door!
it would probably be in everyone's best interest even considering canada can't even take care of itself with its current land and population.
I don't know enough about mexico to comment on how much more they could take on.
