That does actually tell you where because only usaians are arrogant enough to think that would be meaningful.

Nobody else on the planet is like this and so it does tell you it’s the USA. This ticks me off because it deserves to be met with mockery.

If you don’t know where the original York with any precision idk why you would think I’d know much about the sequel.

    Nah, it’s an unreasonable level of detail to expect from people who don’t directly interact with those countries and divisions and don’t have your type of autism, so naming their state to foreigners is just chauvinism. Doubly so when a bunch of their shit is named after European locations that Europeans would be likely to directly interact with and know about.
