The show on History channel, “How the States got their shapes” is very good. If it weren’t for the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, a chunk of Northern California, and Southern Oregon would have attempted to become the state of Jefferson, on December 7, 1941.

There is lots of signage and sentiment in Northern California that the folks there feel they are a separate state, Jefferson.

That’s been ongoing since I was a kid there in the 70s. It’s a wistful way of imagining what could be... but it won’t.
