I'm wondering how much Spain is going to interfere here.
They still control Florida, and have existing claims over lands south of the Ohio.

Mustn’t forget to blame Georgia. Which is going to probably not have South Caronlia giving up land claims to it. Or the Spanish dropping claims to West Florida.

South Carolina never had a de jure claim to the little strip often shown on maps. That was due to an inaccurate marking of Georgia's northern border. As for yazoo/northern west florida, the usa had annexed it by 1787
Well, the bad thing is that he didn't have much federal backing... there were a good many voices at the national level that opposed a blanket policy of "removal", not the least of which was the Supreme Court. He basically did what his backers in the southern states wanted, and to hell with John Marshall and to hell with the Tribes... some of whom had fought beside him previously. IE, Andrew Jackson was a bastard

Indeed - Andrew Jackson should have been jailed. Instead, they made him president.

Trying to figure out the most plausible way to divvy up the northwest territory is giving me gray hairs
I do not envy this task.
It's probably going to take multiple treaties, and possibly the odd minor war, to sort out.
Want to really have some fun, refer to the old Royce Maps and try throwing some of the Indian Treaty lines into the mix... Indiana alone is enough to make you age 10 years overnight

Heh, and that's just a map of the different surveying systems used, which depended largely on the land grants, before the Public Lands Survey township-and-range system was uniformly adopted... The fun is just beginning!

Know this is a WIP, but don't forget that accursed 49th Parallel line west of Lake o' the Woods probably won't exist... most of the Red River Valley was still p/o Selkirk's colony pre-1818
Is that color swatch in western Georgia and North Carolina representing the NA states? Does the pink represent BNA settlement as opposed to controlled territory?
