OK, Virginia...

Really, Western and Southern VA are as different from Northern Virginia and the Tidewater as Alabama and Massachusetts. They should split off.

I think the speculation was a sort of divvying up the spoils. There might not be all that much concern about contiguity of like populations if foreign countries were just trying to get theirs.

If they know what's good for them, though, they'll make New Scotland out of the Appalachians from northern Alabama all the way up to Pennsylvania and throw in the foothills on either side to boot, lol.

Talk about a hornet's nest under such a scenario.
