Good catch. Yeah, the Missouri bootheel is missing for some reason. That is an error.
Not sure Elko is in Nevada, the border with Utah is farther west than now iOTL...
Because some of them are both so familiar and yet so different from what I know from IRL. It's that disconcerting of the almost but not quite familiar, that vague sense that it's alien.
Is that an American Guiana my eyes spy?
Yes, there is American Guiana. USA got that during the Great War. IIRC its current name is Lincoln and gained statehood in 1990's.
Good memory, but the state is called American Guiana and the capital city is Lincoln.
@Mac Gregor, is there racism or discrimination directed at people of Chinese heritage in America due to the state of international relations. Are there any extremists party's that have come close to winning elections?
Good question. There is of course some racism directed at people of Chinese heritage, but overall it’s comparable to OTL. Most Chinese Americans are very much anti-technate. ITTL no extremist parties come close to winning US elections. There are of course sone politicians who get caught saying problematic things from time to time. Currently ITTL most xenophobia is directed at African migrants.

The American Conservative Party which formed in the mid 1940s and last carried a state during the 1952 presidential election, officially disbanded in 1961. Some of the more racist elements formed the White Citizens Front which never became a serious electoral concern and became defunct by the end of the 1970s. The 1980s saw the rise of the American Family Party which concentrated on conservative social issues such as abortion and homosexuality. They are still active in the 2020s but are tiny and mostly contest municipal, county, and school board elections.

No need to apologize, and yes!
From the 2021 Update... After nearly two years of negotiations, the Fellowship of Nations unveiled the Treaty Governing the Exploration, Utilization, and Colonization of Outer Space and Celestial Bodies more commonly known as the Space Colonization Treaty. Superseding several previous agreements, the Space Colonization Treaty outlined the process for states and private companies to settle and exploit extraterrestrial resources. Cis-lunar space was deemed a global commons while a state could lay claim to territory on the moon or other body “within 20 nautical miles of an occupied habituation.” Nations were barred from stationing or using nuclear, biological, or chemical weapons in space or maintaining any weapon system in orbit “for the purpose of striking targets within Earth’s atmosphere.” However the treaty did in theory allow armed spacecraft for engaging targets off-world. An international court for settling disagreements in space was established in The Hague.
Regarding militarization of space, there is a growing concern over anti-satellite weapons, both terrestrial and in orbit. Rumors of armed American, German, and Chinese spacecraft have widely circulated though no nation has officially confirmed their existence.
