    Well this is just inaccurate.

    North North North North Virginia should be North North North East North North Virginia, and that propagates through The State Formerly Known As New Hampshire and The State Formerly Known As Maine, too.

    North North North North Virginia would be Old Canada.

    Edit: I guess technically it would be North North East North North North Virginia; the labeling would track backwards from the current state to Virginia. East North Virginia would be 1 state east of “North Virginia”, for example, which would be The State Formerly Known As Delaware.

    I’ve spent way too much time thinking about this already.

      It’s appropriate that they all be slightly wrong, though. Virginia extends slightly west of West Virginia, so West Virginia should really be North Virginia. To use the same naming convention means to carry similar errors.

      Agreed.

      They list Ohio as “West North Virginia” when it should either be “North West Virginia” (North of [West Virginia]) or “West North North Virginia” (West of [North North Virginia, AKA, Pennsylvania])

    “Big Virginia” is what they called me in high school

        The irony of your comment is that in my understanding it, we know whether it applied to me in high school, anyway.

    You got Virginia wrong. It should be East West Virginia.

      You know what, I’m down. I think life in Mega Virginia will probably be better than life in Indiana now. Can we also do Long Massachusetts?

      Unless you’re considering the farthest point of the archipelago, and then it’s northest eastest Virginia.

    Not calling Hawaii “Wet Virginia” is a tiny blemish that is only visible because it’s the only one
