If California were a country, it would be the 5th largest economy in the world. Califournia would be insane.

If it were just created via simple copy-and-paste, Califournia would have a population of 159 million people, which would be just under half of the current population of the entire country.
If it remained all one state and were not split up, it would certainly turn into a case of the tail wagging the dog. Califournia would be able to split off into its own country with a population and economy rivaling that of the entire remaining 49 states.

If Flourida was a state, it would still only have a GDP about 10% higher than a single California
19 0 ReplyIf california was it's own country, you'd have to remove California's gpd from the U.S. So I think it would be higher on the list.

So, in the former, we'd have a massive population increase, but also a massive increase in overall tech manufacturing and output. In the latter, we'd have way more old people, but four Disney Worlds.
