There's Virginia, North Virginia, Northwest Virginia, North Northwest Virginia, West Virginia, Southwest Virginia, South Southwest Virginia, South Virginia... Looks right to me
“New Zealand” is a meme island made up by international criminal gangs.
They make fraudulent passports for this fake island, then gaslight authorities into letting them off the hook by insisting it’s a real place somewhere near Australia, even though it doesn’t appear on real globes or maps.
This has gone so far, that there are now maps that include it, either because they are made by said gangs or because the authors have been successfully tricked and didn't bother to double check
While it is true that Virginia is a Commonwealth, it does not diminish the fact that it is a state.
Even though it was officially so declared in 1776, the status as a Commonwealth has no impact legally on the status of Virginia, and is impactful only in name & symbol.

Fun fact about Virginia/West Virginia: Virginia actually extends further west than West Virginia does. It really should be named Northwest Virginia.

If your New England lasts more than 4 hours, seek medical help.

They made up New Zealand to finally create a good spinoff of Taskmaster, since no one else seemed capable.

Neu Zodland doesn't even get a mention.

I thought it was gaseous, probably followed by solid, then liquid
Manjushri@piefed.social · 3 pts · 171d
I think plasma would come before gaseous.

Good call, actually

This is part of the citizenship test. You have to identify which states are real.

A. None of them

Virginia isn't a state, it's a Commonwealth 😏

Pfft. Maybe the first state in the CSA. Delaware was the first to ratify the constitution and officially become a state.
