While browsing for proposals for the 51st state, I came across this article that called for making the Navajo Nation into the 51st state.

Here is the article in question

Call it Polk. Hell, if not for the traitor Nicolas Trist violating Congress’ and the President’s orders for the southern border at Guadeloupe-Hidalgo, there wouldn’t have been a need for a Gadsden Purchase in the first place.

I also remember seeing a scan of the original map used to determine the new southern border. Finding it again would be an absolute pain… Anyway, it was accompanied by some historic text and a record of the proceedings. What I do remember is that it said, “Sam Houston’s first action was to lay a ruler just south of Tampico and draw a line directly across the continent.” And I think that’s just great.

Not Necessarily a single proposal, but i looked at the list of separatist movements on Wikipedia. And thought, "hey, this sounds awf- I mean fun to map"

So I made this, some of them contradict, and some had like no info on what borders they actually claimed, or what the new nation would actually be called (I also didn't do stuff like Castile and England seceding from Spain or the UK because come on.)View attachment 492017

Nobody thinks of the Navajo, unfortunately.

Seems odd that the former Far East Republic isn’t a separatist movement, as it’s cut off from the rest of Russia almost perfectly by its old borders.

The Navawho now?
