Ok there. omfg.

LMAO...nice job but I still went from Fla to DC

 

[BrianH1]

vermont!

 

[laurenlex]

Texas. Population, square miles, coastline, guns, trucks, oil, more guns.

 

[mobobuff]

I hate to admit it, but Texas would probably be victorious. For the reasons everybody has stated and plus they seem to be well suited with the idea of being their own country. I'm sure they'd go nuts. REMEMBER TEH ALAMO!!!!!11

But Michigan wouldn't be a pushover. We're surrounded by water except on our southern border, so we'd be very hard to attack. And everybody knows Ohio and Indiana are pussies. All we would have to do would be to go into Detroit and tell everyone it was now okay to start shooting people as long as they weren't from Michigan.

 

[EatSpam]

As much as I can't stand Texas, I'd have to say that between the psycho rednecks and the oil in their water, they'd destroy the rest of the country with bullets and stupidity.

North Dakota nuke silos FTW

 

[Toonces]

where's the provinces in that poll?

 

[mobobuff]

Also Michigan has the largest isolated containment of anthrax. I'm sure we could use that somehow.

 

[mercanucaribe]

I voted for Texas.

 

[Torched]

FLA has all the military bases!!

What are the exact numbers? I always thought Texas had the most, with California close in second.

 

[Xonoahbin]

Colorado. We have NORAD. Invincible against your silly nukes, besides we have some of our own. Game over.

 

[mobobuff]

Colorado would be difficult to attack, but then again Colorado probably wouldn't put too many efforts into dominating surrounding states.

It's like a game of Risk, really.

Precicely.

We'd just declare ourselves neutral, sit back and watch the carnage.
Then we'd sell our oil to whomever was left, make a ton of money and take over Hawaii.

 

[da loser]

alaska would go bankrupt building a bunch of bridges to nowhere. no more federal pork for you.

 

[lobadobadingdong]

duh, Texas has the 2nd largest armed forces in the world. (something like 65-75% of the US armed forces are native Texans.

 

[FeuerFrei]

texas has its own power grid. therefore, when all the power links were cut, we'd still have power. we'd win almost by default.

not to mention that ft hood is the biggest military base on the planet.

Why would everyone on Fort Hood fight for Texas?

I'm still holding my vote for DC but I would do RI and be outta here

 

[Lurknomore]

I guess Texas would cut off oil to every other state, annex Louisiana and Oklahoma, thus becoming Texlahomiana!!!

Texlahomiana for teh win!

It would have to be a hunting state. I say Ohio. They did manage to hold on to Toledo...

Plus, the Ohio militia is the only federally-recognized militia (not including Nat'l Guard) so they have an extra layer of protection.

Invasion from overseas would be defended by:
Navy/Coast Guard/Air Force
Marines/Army/Air Force
Nat'l Guard/Air Nat'l Guard
Ohio Militia
Police forces
Citizens

I don't know how strong the Ohio militia is, but I'm willing to bet that Texas has many more military bases than Ohio.

California has twice the economic power of Texas or New York and hell of a lot more people...not mention a couple naval, army, and air force bases.

It is well protected from incursion by a large moutain range and deserts (sorry Nevada) except to north, which is Oregon (a state which would pose no threat).

Most important industries are well represented in California and CA would control commerical ports for products from the Far East.

Aside from Texas, New York, and Florida (and maybe one or two other states) which also lose money in the federal taxation / re-allocation process...all other states would stop receiving their yearly federal budget handout that CA, TX, NY, and FL pay for and these states would find themselves in a very real budget crisis.

Basically, CA, TX, NY, and FL would sign a treaty... all other states would be fvcked.
