Since I discovered that New Mexico is where I belong I read on Wikipedia that its name does not reference the country of Mexico and that it was called "New Mexico" long before Mexico was called "Mexico." I guess I believe that. At the same time, I sort of think of New Mexico as the new Colorado and sort of think of Colorado as the new California.

I think it's interesting with regard to regional cultural type similarities. It seems to coincide pretty well with my own impressions. I don't think I'd lump the Northeast and upper Midwest together, though.
some one needs to tell those regional map people that there doesn't need to be so many northeastern divisions. it's not the 18th century anymore, you know?

All Streets consists of 240 million individual road segments. No other features — no outlines, cities, or types of terrain — are marked, yet canyons and mountains emerge as the roads course around them, and sparser webs of road mark less populated areas. More details can be found here, with additional discussion of the previous version here.
