Makes me think of how things would have been different if that line from Pennsylvania and Maryland also bounded western Virginia. And Upstate New York was a separate state. And Maine became Penaquid.

Part of Maine was briefly also called New Somersetshire (after 1629), with part of Permaquid also briefly as New Cornwall when part of New York (after 1664).

It would be rather epic to include the royal grant of May 2, 1670 to the Hudson Bay Company, of all of [Rupert’s Land](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rupert%27s_Land), i.e. all the land that is drained by the Hudson Bay.
