The states' Democratic governors offered few specifics Wednesday as to how they hope the Western Health Alliance could influence which vaccines will be available in their states.
That only works for Washington and Oregon, if California is included a better name is the Pacific States of America or The Grand Republic of California.
No those are the whackjobs up in the Cascadian mountains themselves, basically they want to sheer off Eastern Oregon, Eastern Washington, and Northern California and form what would be the single poorest state. Lots of fascists mixed in.
More importantly, Cascadia is a fine name, even if it wasn’t attached to anything. A name that is pretty, distinct, and rolls off the tongue are all good features to have.
They need to finally form the country of Cascadia

Wasn’t “Jefferson” another proposed name? Or am I mixing it up with something else?

I’d say “they can have it” but that’s actually important farmland and invaluable wild habitat.
Gotcha
Cascadia is named after the cascade mountains that cross all 3 states.
It is named after the mountains of course but it is a well-established concept of a bio region not just national borders. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascadia_(bioregion)
Sure if you’re going to include California you’d want to go with a feature that more than a quarter of the state has.
Why? Seems perfectly reasonable to me. What’s the “correct” cut off for inclusion in a mountain range for a state?
Seems like an arbitrary thing to say that California can’t be in Cascadia because only 190 of a 760 mile state have the mountain range in it.
