Cascadia has a nice ring to it.

One of the large problems the US has is that it isn't really 1 nation.

Its 5 nations in a trench coat.

Cascadia, Dixie, New England, Midwest, Bigger texas.

New England should be Arcadia. It sounds so much better

Already taken: Arcadia

Do you mean Acadia?

We could always go back to the original name: Dominion of New England

or: New England Confederation

Oooo: Ninnimissinuok or Narragansett

I think you mean Acadia, and even though I like Acadia as a name, no. New England forever.

Maybe we could use it as an officially recognized nickname. Kinda like how USA is often shortened to just America.

Also, the official Natuonal motto would be "Nunquam libertas gratior extat".
