ooh, I wanna see this as hexagons!
Bestagons
Hello there.
General Hexobi
Thanks, I hate it!
Now I want to know how big those squares would be, and what state is closest to being that size now...
Can someone Math for me?
The total land area of the US is 3,531,905 square miles. One 50th of that is 70,638.1 square miles. According to a highly reputable wikipedia article I found, North Dakota has the land area closest to that, at 69,001 square miles.
If you use the exclusive economic zone, and compare one 50th of that to the total area of the states, Minnesota is closest, instead.
South Dakota
No, I'm not showing my work.
Wolfram alpha is good for stuff like that and they make it pretty easy
Ueegh
Colorado: ?
Is best country and looks the same
Then they would be the same size

Cartography Anarchy
A community for Cartographers with nothing left to lose.
Rules:
Don't be awful Lemmy Guidelines Still Apply.
No direct upload images This is hosted on Lemm.ee- to post images, you must use an image upload service like Imgur to post maps.
We are agents of chaos I've created this to be the alternative to the community I used to manage on the website that shalt not be named "mapporncirclejerk"
Live and let die Meme trends happen, so please don't message mods asking to take down maps that are repetitive to a bit.
Reposts Vs. Covers Not all reposts are evil- if someone posts something that has been done years ago, it serves to bring old memes to the new users. I call these meme covers. However it can be done in excess which makes it a repost and spam. Mods will determine if a post is a cover or a repost.
No impersonating mods I can't believe I had to make this rule.
No harassing mods on an appeal We can talk it out, and we will be acting in good faith when making decisions. If you disagree with a removal, you are free to message for clarification or to appeal by giving some added context.
Bans Bans will be set to a maximum of 365 days for humans, and a minimum of 365 years for bots. I believe people can change, so if you are banned for good reason, do know that it is not permanent, it is just a way to say "take time to grow and come back when you are ready".
