I maybe went overboard too. This is a lot more text than I planned. Here's the Ohio provinces. I'll repost the map because it's stuck on the previous page.

Ohio Provinces
1. Forks: Like several of Ohio's provinces, Forks began its existence as a Mixed republic in the late 18th century. The Forks of the Ohio was a strategic spot, and it drew traders from nearly every commercial power in the region. When it first was organized as a province of the Ohio Alliance, Forks included land across the river, including the growing metropolis of Two Forts. Later treaties transferred that land to the state of Allegheny, and the provincial center moved to North Fork, a suburb. Like the adjacent parts of Allegheny, Forks remains a melting pot of cultures and peoples. French and English function as the two official languages.
2. Youngstown: The city of Youngstown was settled as part of Upper Connecticut. French and Virginian forces occupied it during the war of 1802, and the bulk of the population scattered. The town remained occupied at war's end, and it became something of a bargaining chip. Upper Connecticut was forced to give it up in order to win general recognition of its independence as a state. The town's citizens were allowed to return and were compensated with rather generous allotments of land. The province's New England character changed somewhat as non-Yankees settled in the area. This demographic shift was one reason the province never tried to secede from Ohio to rejoin Upper Connecticut, something that many had feared. Despite much immigration and intermarriage from different groups, English remains the main language. Youngstown is Ohio's smallest province.
3. Mühlenberg: These lands were given to citizens of Pennsylvania after 1810 to compensate them for lost claims and property elsewhere in Ohio, not unlike what had been agreed to in Youngstown. The new Pennamite settlements joined with some older villages to incorporate a new province c. 1820. They named it after Peter Mühlenberg, a pastor-soldier-statesman who had become a hero of Pennsylvania and its German community in particular. By 1800, Mühlenberg had become active in Pennsylvania's western project and was living near Coshocton. He did not return to military service when war broke out, but he opened his home to care for wounded soldiers. A disease that broke out among the wounded took his life. Thereafter several militia units named themselves in his honor, and it was natural to apply his name to the new province. The Pennamite community, both English and German, dominated the province in the early years and their descendants define it still today.
4. The Ranges: This region was Virginia's most extensive settlement project north of the Ohio River. The Ranges take their name from the process of surveying the land to be parceled out into townships and homesteads. The final border was drawn so that the province mainly included lands fully under the control of the Virginian farmers; where the settlements were of a more mixed character, they were generally given to the Muskingum or Chalacatha provinces. Even after surrendering the territory, Virginia remained in control of numerous forts, ferries, and toll roads in the province; these were relinquished or purchased over the course of the 19th century.
5. East Muskingum: The Muskingum River region was a loosely organized republic at the end of the 18th century. The bustling center of activity was the town of Coshocton. It was the western capital of the Lenape people; the eastern Lenape were mainly based in the emerging state of Christiana, which was still a dependency of Pennsylvania. Together, Pennsylvania, Christiana, and the Lenape formed a powerful bloc. Pennamite leaders hoped to make Coshocton the seat of a great western alliance, as Montreal had been. But other factions within the Muskingum community favored neutrality, in particular the growing numbers of Moravian converts. Leaders from the Muskingum were early members of the Ohio Alliance. In the early years it was Ohio's largest province; later it was split into east and west. English, German, and Lenape are the primary languages.
6. Silvana: West Muskingum changed its name to Silvana in the 1850s, partly a nod to Pennsylvania's historic role, but mostly named after the province's forests. The division of Muskingum came after new population centers arose in the western end of the province. English, French, Wyandot, and Shawnee are the main languages.
7. Chalacatha: The province is named for a Shawnee regional capital on the Scioto River. In the late 18th century Chalacatha drew many newcomers from the Penn-Christiana-Lenape alliance. Christiana built a fort outside the town that became the seat of power for the forces of Sweden, whose king had only recently regained control over the old colony. The fort was mostly manned by local militia, but units from Europe strengthened it, most famously a battalion of Polish cavalry. The winged hussars of Chalacatha ranged across Ohio and Illinois for only a few years, but they left a permanent mark on the memory and folklore of the region. After 1808 some of the European troops chose to settle in the new Chalacatha province rather than return home. The Swedish langauge is still spoken here, together with Shawnee and English.
8. Scioto: The Scioto Habitations were a settlement project launched by France in the 1780s and 90s. New habitants were recruited in Canada and France. They were given generous grants of land around the mouth of the Scioto River. France's geopolitical motive was to block Virginia from gaining control of the full length of the Ohio River - a sign of mistrust between the two allies. The province has kept its largely French character to the present day, though of course many people besides the original habitants moved in over the years.
9. Losanti: Losanti is the second "Virginian province", though Virginia never directly controlled nearly as much land here as in the Ranges. A surveyor named the main city Losantiville in a convoluted blend of word roots from four languages; while the city's name quickly shortened to Losanville, Losanti remained the name of the province. As the population of Upper Virginia increased, many of the Virginia Cherokee settlements faced pressure and discrimination. They found an inviting destination in Losanti, creating a vibrant Cherokee community that has lasted to the present. Cherokee is still spoken in the province, even though it died out in most parts of Upper Virginia.
10. Miami: Miami is named for the Great Miami River as well as the Miami nation. Located in the center of the state, it is home to the capital Pekoui, which has grown into a large metropolis. French is the only official language owing the large number of Indian langagues that are spoken.
11. Upper Wabash: The Upper Wabash was the cradle of the Ohio Alliance. Ohio's founder Tecumseh was based here. In 1802 he began the war as an English ally, but over the next few years was converted to the neutrality movement and became its leading advocate. In 1806 he led the Grand Council of Mississinewa, which formed the Ohio Alliance and laid out a plan for ending the war. Tecumseh's council was the first predecessor to the modern State of Ohio. Shawnee, Miami, and Anishinaabe are the most widely spoken among Upper Wabash's many indigenous languages; they have official status along with French.
12. White River: The White River republic was one of the leading local powers in Ohio in the late 18th century, and among all the republics it was possibly the most independent-minded. The villages of White River rebuffed Virginian, French, and English attempts to establish posts in their territory. It remains largely indigenous today, with most of its people descending from multiple tribal groups: Dhegiha, Shawnee, Miami, Iroquois, and others. French is the lingua franca and the language of government.
13. Ankwasakwa: This is the Miami name for the largest tributary of the White River. At the time that the provinces were formed, the land had hardly anyone living on it - it was the last vacant piece of Ohio. Iroquoia in fact made one last attempt to claim jurisdiction over it, based on its earlier claims to suzerainty over Ohio since the wars of the 17th century. Instead, it became an unorganized territory subject directly to the state government, gaining provincial status in later decades. Most of the settlers came from neighboring provinces and Upper Virginia; other areas were conceded to immigrating groups from Iroquoia and elsewhere.
14. General Clark: The third "Virginian province", General Clark was largely settled after the wars by veterans. They are responsible for the province's bellicose name; the General's rank has been part of the name from the start.
15. Vincennes: Ohio's largest province was the seat of French power in the Ohio Country. Many of its people would have been just as happy ending up part of Illinois, with whom they share many cultural ties; but the treaties gave Vincennes to the Ohio Alliance. In the Bonapartist era France continued to administer the fort and many other properties within the province; when this system ended, the state took control of these properties. Vincennes is mostly Francophone today, though like Illinois it cherishes its Indian heritage and culture.
16. Wea: The Wea nation was an important French ally on the middle Wabash. Its capital Ouiatenon was also the site of a major French fort. The Wea increasingly became a Métis ethnic group similar to the Illinois due to intermarriage and cultural exchange over a the course of a century. The indigenous language of the Wea is Miami, and that language is still official in the province, though it is mainly spoken only in rural areas.
