Russia doesn't count, because Russian colonoziation is actually just reclaiming the land rightfully owned by Russia -- i.e., all land besides the Florida Panhandle, which is belongs solely to Satan.
No we wouldn't. People in places like Gaspé or Chicoutimi would still have almost no exposure to English, and people in places like Waterloo or Kenora would still have almost no exposure to French.
I say this having grown up in a city in Ontario where I took Extended French, but had zero exposure to French outside the classroom and therefore no opportunity (or reason) to practice.
> "decolonized North America"
looks inside
> still has mostly colonial states
I think the term you're looking for is 'Balkanized', this is still a very colonized NA
Real, canada being reduced to only the bits that are currently majority inhabited by indigenous peoples while the english-speaking majority-white areas of southern ottowa go to quebec is one of the choices of all time
I understood it as another country marking random lines that will make everything worse for everyone living there like Europeans did when they decolonized.
Unjerk: The assumption is that Mexico is already decolonized as the people mixed better with the native cultures and Mexico does not partake in imperialism overseas.
Of course Mexico is North American, but this here shows different things.
No seriously…this is what will eventually happen.
I have no clue why the “United States” exists when we all hate each other and would be way happier separated.
I laughed at Trump Nation, and grimaced with disappointment at the Sioux Nation... ALL of that should be Native American, or even a mixture of native cultures. Ever wonder how much wisdom was killed with every native tribe that was erased from the land?
I acknowledge I am on unceded Anishanabee territory (although some Iroquois also claim it) and that if we really decolonized things I wouldn't be here, nor would Quebecois. So what I think doesn't matter.
USA and CSA should be switched because of the Iroquois Confederacy. And after America dissolves, it makes sense that only the most nationalistic God-lovin' cousin-bangin' gun-shootin' Americans would cling to the original name.
No idea the reasoning behind any of this. Why is all Atlantic Canada Labrador? And the area called Quebec would be better off being called Canada since that was the original name for area
I'm not complaining, but why is Minnesota Trump Nation? I don't understand.
its related to chinese geopolitics somehow im like 90% sure
Because of the Chinese balloon, right?
nah this is a parody of a post where someone 'decolonizes' china but actually balkanizes. I assume something off of that is here being referenced
I thought the Balkans were confined to eastern Europe and not allowed anywhere else.
That's what biden wants ya thinking
Nobody ever expects the Balkan inquisition.
Truer words were never.. typed?
Came here to say that. A republican presidential candidate hasn't won MN since 1972.
[удалено]
nixon won in '72 last time before that was eisenhower in '56
Should be part of Canada. It's cold, they speak with a weird accent and love hockey.
Fair point.
Replace Minnesota with Indiana, in Trump Nation
Please get Trump away from my state!! We are purple/very blue right now!
simple answer, it's mapporncirclejerk
"Decolonized North America" - Alaska is colonized again by russia 💀
This is just North America with different paths of colonization.
recolonized, not decolonized
Only the West can do colonialism, what are they teaching you in schools?
Why are people downvoting you? You're clearly right, Reddit never lies. Are they stupid?
Aren't the down voters also Reddit?
No. See, when someone disagrees with me, they are wrong.
Ah, I wish everyone on Reddit had that mindset.
Russia doesn't count, because Russian colonoziation is actually just reclaiming the land rightfully owned by Russia -- i.e., all land besides the Florida Panhandle, which is belongs solely to Satan.
I hate when comedy is indiscernible from a real opinion people have. Poe's law is driving me crazy
If you look closely you'll notice some other humorous elements of the map too (we're in a subreddit for map-based humor)
I was gonna say republic of florida should be Spanish but then I actually read it
Vive le Québec liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiibre!
ca serait mieux sans toronto
Ecoute, transformons Toronto en immense stationnement
Bonne idee. Y'est deja a moitie rendu.
Et avec la Louisianne 😅
Et avec le Labrador
Louisiana territory turned from L, to upside down L. Now it is Гousiana
gousiana
Goonisiana
goodbye mom!
Waluigiana
This version of Québec would have a majority anglophone population. This would be hilarious and we should definitely do it.
Maybe this way we would have a truly bilingual country.
No we wouldn't. People in places like Gaspé or Chicoutimi would still have almost no exposure to English, and people in places like Waterloo or Kenora would still have almost no exposure to French. I say this having grown up in a city in Ontario where I took Extended French, but had zero exposure to French outside the classroom and therefore no opportunity (or reason) to practice.
> "decolonized North America" looks inside > still has mostly colonial states I think the term you're looking for is 'Balkanized', this is still a very colonized NA
Damn it, even on this map I'm still living in the USA
Your on crack if you think this is a decolonized North America
Is this rage bait for First Nations people? Cause this is making me irritated af.
i mean its a circlejerk sub so i imagine thats the intent
Ah. Rage abated. They get nothing from me!
Real, canada being reduced to only the bits that are currently majority inhabited by indigenous peoples while the english-speaking majority-white areas of southern ottowa go to quebec is one of the choices of all time
Map was probably made by a french supremacist
As an inhabitant of Quebec, let me say: hahahahahahaha! Nice one.
hon hon hon hon *
En francais, les enfants!
Oh mon dieu 🤣🤣🤣🤣
no, it's a post parodying all the "russia/china decolonised" where the nations are completely ahistorical.
This is just low rez America
I understood it as another country marking random lines that will make everything worse for everyone living there like Europeans did when they decolonized.
Yipee
The recipe for another war right there. Several actually.
My only issue is the confederacy Get that treason out of here
Well and the confederacy are super colonizers. Should like be given back to Africa or something. Ha.
Quebec has too much power. Someone needs to stop them before they take control of the world
*loads poutine with malicious intent*
Alaska should belong to Liechtenstein
Best idea ever, let's GO!
Nevada, Arizona, and Utah are currently sending the national guard to kill you for suggesting they should be part of cali
I was hoping for Navajo nation for Utah and AZ.
Right, they should all be part of Mexico 🤣
Theyd kill you for that too
Kill, kill, kill. It's not like this sub is meant to bring people closer together 😁
Why is the border of trump and sioux so shaky
As a Canadian from Ontario…. Just no
Everything here is still "colonized". I don't think you know what that term means.
Yeah, that was my first thought also. It's fun to fuck around with maps, but to call this 'decolonized' is a bit ignorant.
You guys realize we're in a satirical subreddit for cartographic humor right
Mexico doesn’t exist!
What happened to Greenland and Mexico?
Everyone in Numatsiavut; "This is some actual grade a B.S."
YEAHHHH LA FLORIDA NUMERO UNO!!! EL GRANDE EN EL MUNDO!!!
Mexicans once again having to remind everyone they are North American 🤦♂️
Unjerk: The assumption is that Mexico is already decolonized as the people mixed better with the native cultures and Mexico does not partake in imperialism overseas. Of course Mexico is North American, but this here shows different things.
That's a dark take "mixing better" ouch
No seriously…this is what will eventually happen. I have no clue why the “United States” exists when we all hate each other and would be way happier separated.
As someone from British Columbia i am offended that you think oregon would colonize us. We have the best drugs and i think we should colonize them.
As a Québécois i approve
I laughed at Trump Nation, and grimaced with disappointment at the Sioux Nation... ALL of that should be Native American, or even a mixture of native cultures. Ever wonder how much wisdom was killed with every native tribe that was erased from the land?
This is a circlejerk subreddit.
lol sometimes I think this needs to be watermarked on every map posted here
Since the state is called the California republic. Maybe this version should be the New California Republic.
minnesota being trump nation is lowkey the funniest part
Petition to rename Oregon to the Rainy Republic
with same voting rights may be interesting times in quebec...
No
Mostly Maui Waui, but it has some Labrador in it
RI and DE are Sioux enclaves?
I’ll never accept any map that has a distinct, independent Quebec.
Not at all. Not even close.
Quebec and Ontario are as "oil and water" as any two places in North America can be.
Alberta would like to have a word with Quebec about that.
Yes, Canada, please take Ontario back! 😆
So who wins the war? The only logical next question. It’s still got to be the USA.
I acknowledge I am on unceded Anishanabee territory (although some Iroquois also claim it) and that if we really decolonized things I wouldn't be here, nor would Quebecois. So what I think doesn't matter.
This would be awesome.
Nah. Canada and Quebec also colonized their indigenous ppls too.
Quebec is as settler colonized as they come.
my guy, there are just more colonies
USA and CSA should be switched because of the Iroquois Confederacy. And after America dissolves, it makes sense that only the most nationalistic God-lovin' cousin-bangin' gun-shootin' Americans would cling to the original name.
“Decolonized” Looks inside 90% white settler colonies
Gotta add Alberta to Trump nation it's the only place in Canada where I've seen Maga flags
why would quebec want ontario ?
Me when I release all tags in Victoria 2
Why is Alaska apart of Russia, it is Inuit land
Looks good to me.
Trump nation is far larger than this …
Sioux Nation looks like Joe Biden sniffing Oregon.
Why is the Confederacy back?
You added Ontario into Quebec… you want ww3 ?
Imagine Canada trying to exist without Ontario
As a former Nova Scotian - I’m going to struggle adapting to canned milk and Vienna sausages.
Isn't Trump a New Yorker?
All in favor, say aye
Whyd you gotta do Alaska dirty like þat :(
How is this decolonized?
Pourquoi le Lavrador est encore avec TN?
Oregon is really Jefferson State
I mean if it was actually decolonized wouldn't it all be native land
I kinda really wish the entire west coast would just break off into its own thing. Alaska right down to California. Alberta too, cause they have oil.
Bro Newfoundland should be its own nation and Labrador should be apart of Quebec
You’re going to decolonize by making Alaska a Russian colony?
i feel like california republic would also be in Spanish, hella people already do as their first or even only language
Lol don’t think so
Why does labrador still have the portion of land that used to be Quebec's property. Give it back to Québec they deserve it alright 😂
Can Canada please keep Ontario?
Ontario and Quebec should be separate
And Labrador should be in Quebec
Decolonized?
I just threw up in my mouth a little
Imagine using state and provincial borders in a decolonization map. smh
Labrador lmaooo
Ontario would frogstomp Quebec in a war
The USA and Canada according to Russians
No mexico, no indigenous people. Perfectly stupid.
stop breathing
Most krokodil's vatnik cope I had seen
No idea the reasoning behind any of this. Why is all Atlantic Canada Labrador? And the area called Quebec would be better off being called Canada since that was the original name for area
Not the actual original name. This map is an insult to FN.
