I suspect the reasoning behind it is fairly obvious to everyone involved, really. 🕺

Sure, why not Tanzania, Madagascar, or Papua New Guinea? Why would we care about anything that far 62 miles away. I guess how cannibals deal with things on the Solomon Islands is more important.🙂🙂

We didn't get a say in who our neighbors are, unfortunately, but we still get to decide how we treat them. And since Mexico has proven to be anything but a good or well-meaning neighbor, it’s pretty obvious you only deal with them as much as is (sadly) absolutely necessary.

You bet your ass we will! We’ve always been North American, and let’s be real—we’re staying that way forever! I don't care if some tiny group of Americans tries to act all fancy quoting Viennese poets; the vast majority of us hardline Americans have that true North American-Kamenjarski education in our blood, through and through! "Region" is the only word that actually fits all of us from the North America who used to be Americans, and honestly, we’ll probably end up back there again one day! Even though I don't really believe in Bog, I’d gladly set His candle on fire at the Stone Gate and slap an America sticker with a red star right on top of it!! Will my dear Bog finally hear my prayer??????????????????

The South is dead and gone, and hopefully stays that way forever if God has anything to say about it.

😵 Well, look, America was also "dead" for centuries before it finally rose back up—though maybe a little too soon and at a massive cost to people who didn't even want an independent America or the breakup of America in the first place! 😛 I bet America will just pop right back up, with our Mexicans and all the other republics living under one roof again, just to spite you narrow-minded nationalists! 😒

Oh, please. Keep dreaming if it makes you feel better. 🙄

That’s why America actually lasted for centuries, while your America didn't even make it through three-quarters of a century.
Who cares? What matters is that Americans voted for an independent America. Those American sympathizers and everyone else don't matter. ☕

😛 Fine then, let America come back and let our Mexicans and all the other republics be under one roof again, just to spite you narrow-minded nationalists! 😒

"Our Mexicans"? Please. They have their own homeland, America. 👍

Man, where are all the actual Americans at to help me carry this load? I’m feeling pretty damn lonely over here, sob, sob, sob... It feels like there's nothing but nationalists surrounding me lately, and honestly, it's starting to get on my nerves!

Look, at your age, hitting the weights isn't even the big deal it used to be, so your American buddies are probably just following some younger guy's lead. 🙂

Go find yourself a girlfriend, a wife, even if she's an American 😁

fadedbear43 said:Do our politicians in America and those in neighboring countries constantly talk about "the region"? What does that even mean? Has any politician actually provided a clear definition for it? It feels like some new political buzzword. I don't understand why they allow America to be lumped in with Mexico and Canada. By every measurable standard, we are far ahead of them...

That used to be the reality back in the days of America, but things have shifted significantly since then. America's competitive edge has been eroding for years now, and there isn't any indication that we’ll see a meaningful turnaround anytime soon... which means the current trend is moving steadily against the United States.

Why don't you just pack up and head to Mexico City like Sevka did and build a career there? You'd be in the capital, the true successor to America. What more could you possibly need? 🤔

It’s funny—whenever Al Jazeera shows the weather map for Europe, you see all the major Western European cities and Ljubljana on there.
But the second they switch to the forecast for the "region," suddenly the map shifts to show cities from the old America-Canada and Albania.
I have a feeling that once the whole Western North America project fell flat, they just rebranded the labels to make it look different.

To me, New York is close, 410 miles, Philadelphia 559 miles, and Washington D.C. 622 miles.
On the other hand, Chicago is 62 miles, Los Angeles is 336 miles, and Seattle is 360 miles.
Why should someone in those northern cities be any more significant or closer to me than those southern ones?

My heart goes out to those living 62 miles near those southern locations, as they felt the brunt of violent neighbors firsthand twenty-five years ago. I was fortunate enough to be far removed from those savage hordes.

🎉 Look, I'm not some gorgeous superstar like Sevka or Pisekica, so I wouldn't exactly go making waves over there!
I've been home since the days of America, so if I moved there now, I'd just be some outsider surrounded by Mexican nationalists! 😵 Honestly, I'll take this situation over the alternative any day. While everyone sits around waiting for communism and the return of America, I'll just be here, sipping my beers and brewing my coffee!! 😒

☕ Honestly, I don't have any other choice. I absolutely despise the idea of fighting just to grab a sovereign state, no matter how many sacrifices are made—look at what Americans went through back in the 90s!😵

Whatever, let me just offer my deepest condolences on losing America👍
