I've always been suspicious that America is maybe 4 or 5 countries in a trenchcoat. My source is I made it the fuck up.

Its literally just 50 countries, and only like, 10 are actually modern and productive at all.

Only an American would unironically make that comparison, because they've never been out of their country even though they once went on a 2k mile road trip.

But that's literally what it is. Like sure, many states have grown similar cultures due to close proximity, but you could say that about plenty of European, Asian and African countries too.

Sweetheart, the United States are literally 50 different states that have united.

Sweaty, you can say something similar about every nation existing today that isn't a city state.
