basic geography rule

it came to my attention that my previous post on basic geography https://lemmy.blahaj.zone/post/14668411 needed an inset for Michigan to provide better geographic context, thanks @Technus@lemmy.zip for the catch!

The only problem I have with this post is it implies I give two shits about Michigan.

Well done.
- Do not worry, I never assumed you gave even one shit about Michigan. I assumed you gave two, maybe three, shits about essential geographic context in the art of cartography
  
  I was being a pedant for shiggles, but I appreciate the generosity of your interpretation.
As a michigander I love this
I love the fact that "Toledo" is still correct, and laughed my ass at Quebec being bigger than Canada ... poor Andorra
Espera, ¿todo es Ohio?
- Si, siempre
Ootl, why is Ohio?
- Excellent question, but I don’t have an answer, sorry :(
...fought Indians, fought drought, fought locusts, fought Dix...!
Question, is the UK, Scotland or just Stranraer Toronto?
- Well we’ll have to wait for the next edition of the map of Ohio and it’s surrounding regions, but I have a feeling that the labeling is slightly off and Toronto actual is farther south and east.
  
  Carlisle? That's nowhere near Northern Ireland.
I grew up on the Ohio/WV border. This would have made my childhood significantly more interesting lol
- Are you Steubs or Wheeling?
  
  MOV. Belpre/Pburg.
