Americans don't know how to cooperate, they're raised with a "me first" mentality. They can't fathom the thought of laying down their lives for their countrymen, so unless you propose to them a revolution where every one of them gets treated as the main character and everybody else as the supporting cast, they won't lift a finger.
Also "the fellow countryman" being racist and fully supporting of the whole process doesn't exactly help with motivation.
Also there are those of us who don't see other Americans as countrymen, I am a Californian first American by technicality. I hope to drop shells on Utah one day. Nevada, Arizona, Washington, and Oregon are cool though, Idaho has the potential to be cool if the politicians and zealots were purged Idaho Falls has a great MilSurp store.
Only if we get nuked. It's still continuous from the Bear Flag Revolt.
Disunited States of America would be great, thank you.
Divided States of America is a better term.
