Thanks for the information. I'm sure the other members of the UK have a much different take on the matter than do we Americans.

Similar whining originated by Americans led to the Republics of Texas and California. And we all know what happened after that.

California's statehood was instrumental in giving the Union a majority of free states, since its latitude spanned the limit agreed to as the demarkation between free and slave states.
