Why would Texas ally with California?

It's like Idaho allying with Massachusetts.

Stupid movie.

It's the elephant in the room. They both wanted the same thing, and the US openly attacked them for it.

Maybe Texas got overrun by Californians.

This is a stupid map.
The conflict is rural versus urban. Look at the election map county by county.
Even in NY state, it’s urban versus rural.
Most of the most important military installations are rural.

Educate yourself about the Army of the Potomac ‘success’ in the civil war. Urban versus rural. Then look to the west, rural versus rural, that’s where the Union won. Grant was western army, Ohio boy, very rural.

Then educate yourself about the Romans and the legions. Urban kids got entirely different training and deployment. The Romans Legions understood that Urban kids needed training on everything..

The next conflict will won’t be like the last. However, history has shown that the rural people are the most dangerous and adaptable. WWI was a disaster because the generals were picked because they were high status, liked by the elite and dressed well, just like Lincoln’s first choices. The killers like Grant and Nathan Bedford Forrest were shunned. The killers, the victors, will come from unnoticed places, but think rural.
