But seriously though, what caused such a massive shift from the south, east and California to the Midwest?
Global warming, I believe.

Ah. So NYC is mostly wealthy?
Oh and should it be DCB and NEB?
Dat population movement. Good to see the center of the earth-bound 50 US is in the Midwest where it belongs.

In reality, how does the Terra Commonwealth operate? Weaker than the states?
And I saw you change the pic for Thurman again. I wonder why...
This moon is much cooler than our own moon.
AJND universe always amuses me a lot because it's like the whole solar-system sword-and-planet settings, which were good even at their pulpiest.
Is there a movement for the Terra Commonwealth to get actual powers?In reality, the Terrestrial Commonwealth has ceded all government functions to the federal government in an ex officio capacity.

So Terra is basically the "England" to the United States's "UK"?
Gotcha. Is there any "anti-Terra" sentiment in other Commonwealths?There's been some discussion about it, and a few politicians have mentioned it, but there's no major traction for it.

Wow. That's a pretty lefty America. And I guess Upton Sinclair is the FDR of this world, President from 1933 to his death in 1968?
Wow. Is there any movement to the right at all?The working POD is that there's a 3-way split in the Democrats in 1912, and LaFollete also goes for Debs in that election, Teddy's elected in that election, gradually the Socialists and Progressive become the two main political parties. And, yes, Sinclair is able to make America basically market socialist via his EPIC plan, after serving for nearly 36 years, He's the longest serving President ever, and he's idolized by the American public. He's also glorified to a near-godlike state by Socialists, along with Eugene Debs.
There are third parties, of course, but the vast majority of people are either social democrats in the Progressive Party or socialists in the Socialist Party.Wow. Is there any movement to the right at all?
