Yeah. This would work to have the country split into 50 countries. Or perhaps 5-10 countries comprised of 5-10 states each.
Some years ago, there was talk of having New England secede and join with the Maritime Provinces to form Acadia.
We know the left would like to form a new nation in the Southwest called Aztlan.
California has talked about seceding. Texas reserved that right, and also the right to break up into several states.
Some of Canada’s Western provinces talked about seceding from Canada and joining the USA. (They’re the relatively conservative parts of Canada.)
I’m sure the left would love that!
