The period between 1787 and 1815 was perhaps the most unstable period in American history due to the government being new and the people unsure of how it would be functioning alongside political divisions between federalism and anti-federalism. Your challenge is to have at least one state secede from the Union between 1787 and 1815 based on events and circumstances from OTL, preferably those that don't involve representation of slaves or abolishing the slave trade because that's been done to death and back.

Not particularly what I really had in mind since it's not very realistic.

That's basically the "you'll be back" scenario

In a post American Revolution POD, have at least 1 state leave and rejoin the British Empire, but not through British military might alone. The title is a Hamilton allusion.

Back to PGSBHurricane's original post, A Shays' Rebellion that gets out of control?
That's before the Constitutional Convention. A bit too early. I was thinking after the Constitutional Convention.
