If you look at an actual map of California, you will notice the San Francisco bay is MUCH farther north than on this map (but it is still the same shape and size). To me, it suggests a massive plate shift due to a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megathrust_earthquake" rel="nofollow">Megathrust Earthquake</a>. <br /><br />Other Anonymous said: <i>"All the North Western states extend further north. And geologically it wouldn't make sense for the UP to be part of Canada."</i><br /><br />No, It just looks that way because this map is flat. If you compare it to a real map that is flat, all the northern states have the same border, except for the upper part of Michigan which is "missing".Dennishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05071751415790930551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-788645746622659643.post-31414736541445122502011-03-26T20:33:11.547-04:002011-03-26T20:33:11.547-04:00All the North Western states extend further north....All the North Western states extend further north.

That's just how the continent formed. If the coast "fell into the ocean," which is geologically impossible anyways since land doesn't just hang over the ocean for it to "fall into," then the SF bay wouldn't exist at all, and yet it does, just smushed inland. That has to be the natural coastline of the North American continent in that universe.

Also the US flags in the show look the same as ours -- the 20+30 interposed grids of stars.<br /><br />Also no one seems to have mentioned it yet, but the real US DOD seal is the eagle clutching three arrows with the US shield on its chest, no swords. Also the real seal has 13 stars in a glory at top, and two tied-together olive brances at the bottom. Whereas in the alternate universe, there is no eagle, and there are 11 stars at both the top and bottom.
