    Love how in every fantasy about the US splitting apart states continue to use their existing borders.

    Also shouldn’t this be Civil War 2? Since there was already the first one a while back

      The first one only ended on paper, it has been a “cold” civil war since then. I am pretty certain it will be heating up again some time soon.

      I feel like on day 1 of a states secession, it would have its old borders. And those borders would become disputed territory on day 2, as various regional governments decide whether to join the secession or try to stay with the old feds. Maybe there would be shifting borders for a while as the war progressed until geopgraphical features start to solidify the defensive lines and territorial claims.

      When the Soviet Union collapsed the republics that left kind of maintained their borders, like why do you think Ukraine had Crimea? If the US were to go through a similar situation it absolutely would be divided between the states, not because the states act as countries but because lines on a map actually do have an impact on the material conditions.
