Level 6 · 9 mo agoI can't believe they used a National Geographic map to divide the country. Yall really split millions of people apart with a ruler and a magazine? That is just heartbreaking 💔

Level 6 · 9 mo agoYeah it’s crazy that Rusk used a National Geographic map to split the country. Just drawing a line on a magazine map with zero clue about the history.
