I'm of the opinion that these threads (which are quite fantastical) should go into the Fictional folder.

The states didn't "exist" before 1764. Though, the colonies were the foundation for their eventual names.

This thread may have been a tad overkill.

I've tried for roughly 30 minutes, but I have not been able to come up with a ſingle "theoretical topic" contribution for this thread.  :-D
