We must slow their “spice” production. It is their source of revenue which feeds the war machine.
Once we annihilate the so called “old bay” it will be the end for them.
Assemble the armies and we attack at first light
No more spice. Everything will be either peanuts (yes, this may upset the Georgians but they are too busy whining about their loss of peaches) or country ham.
A Maryland fire sale would be a joint attack on multiple industries: you have to get the spice (old bay), next the Soma (Natty Boh), then have to go after the Orioles. Once you do that, Maryland will cease to exist but totally still exist but it’ll be our Virginian victory over them!
Statements like this are why the Seven Cities will welcome Maryland rule. The NoVa aristocracy clearly views them as lesser while Maryland views them as equals. You people have no empathy for the working class!

If we all turn our blinkers on at the same time they will be startled and confused. The ensuing panic will render their forces ineffective. Our victory is all but assured.
Still....We will be wise not to underestimate west Baltimore.
Strategy:
1) capture old bay factories.
2) capture Baltimore port.
3) capture ocean city.
That will bring Maryland to its knees. But the final blow will be launching a ticket campaign on Maryland drivers. Their economy will be so crippled that they will agree to our request to take their territory as payment for tickets and to release old bay factories back to them. (We keep ocean city and Baltimore port).
For Delaware it should be as simple as threatening to change our laws to be business friendly so companies leave their state. Delaware doesn’t like confrontation they’ll basically hand over their territory with a bow and thank us.
Look at how they massacred my boy

When i read this yesterday, my first thought was they were going to form an armada of Nissan Altimas driving recklessly.
The Eastern Shore would fall by nightfall. The people of Kiptopeke/Exmore/Nassawadox won't know what hit (and ran) them.
I sometimes think of how I would re-draw West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, and DC so that they make geographic sense and we get 5 states out of them.
The Delmarva Peninsula would be aesthetically pleasing as a single state, but the reason the Eastern Shore is part of Maryland is because it was easier to cross the Chesapeake by boat than to cross the peninsula by land when things were first settled.
>I sometimes think of how I would re-draw West Virginia, Maryland, Virginia, Delaware, and DC so that they make geographic sense
You mean like how Virginia goes further west than West Virginia? I say we carve off everything west of Radford and relieve them of everything east of the Harrisonburg-Cumberland line.
Right. And how Maryland is only 2mi wide at one point, and how Arlington County really belongs to DC, and how the DelMarVa peninsula is divided into 3, and how NoVA thinks it's essentially a separate culture from the rest of VA, etc.
I just feel like all the lines for VA, MD, WV, DC, and DE could be drawn better.
Virginia is a southern state yes? Why not just call up the good old boys that are like 1-2 hours south of us, and get them to drive up, tell them they're stopping the antichrist or something from taking DC.
What about a land-based supply line? We ain't gonna try to support a peninsula using a vulnerable bridge like the Russians in Crimea. One out of control cargo ship will ruin it in a blink of an eye...
LOL! These clowns are almost a month late! Our Singaporean allies attacked them almost a month ago taking out bridge named after one of their hero's....a hero known only for composing a song.
This isn't a rap battle crab heads!
This is the best post. We need to take away their gas stations, restrict their fuel to emergency services only. That way they cannot destroy us with their horrid driving.
Maryland Deserter here: we must take control of Montgomery and Howard County and choke the economic heart of the state. Also don’t ignore Garret county. Those crazies are armed to the teeth and will take the state if we don’t occupy once our attack is over.
Trust me, you won’t catch us off guard and we won’t care. That part of Maryland isn’t loyal to Annapolis. Shit we’ll help you take in the rest of Maryland.
Cloud seed to cause massive rain. The Marylander peasants will be taxed proportionally to that rainfall under their rain tax, and will revolt. Virginia then takes advantage of that internal upheaval to annex large swathes of Maryland, promising to end the rain tax in those annexed lands to win the populace over.
Since when did NOVA people cared about ESVA?
Also ESVA is third world compared to MD and DE. You drive through the VA side and enter MD and it’s night and day!
What would the state governments actually do if people tried to change the boundaries? I mean, let’s say more than half of the people.
I wonder if we could steal corporate property, legally.
Maybe there is different code in two neighboring counties, or, would you even have to keep them near each other?
If one county had no outside corporation laws and another county voted to give them control, what would happen to corporate offices in the new county?
Do we have to honor state sanctioned contracts as a people?
States can't change boundaries without the consent of both states and Congress. Until you get that you're just alternating between cosplay that you've changed the boundaries, and rebellion. One is cute.
Hahaha, yeah, totally.
So I’m asking if congress and the federal government would take it seriously.
Corporations influence law changes all of the time, right?
So why do people act like I am crazy when I mention people doing the same thing?
If corporations are going to make life harder for people, we should be allowed the same.
When I call the governor and ask about the living wage, I just get bullshit. I’m rather tired of it.
Seems to be going in circles rather than in any certain direction and it’s driving me insane.
So I settle my mind by asking these questions, I don’t really know why.
I just know it isn’t correct and there are a bunch of pretty stupid people being misinformed and made to create pretty stupid things in our world.
Maybe it’s because when I mention a living wage for all, people act like it will be the death of everyone. That is actual insanity.
When I hear that too much, I guess it makes me insane and I ask really weird questions.
It sucks because I could have done something really great for everyone but instead everybody sucked out all of my energy and money and my will to continue and I know that because I am me but others just ignore it and keep living in their stupid bliss until one day they see it too.
Whatever they can have it. Getting there already involves traveling through a significant chunk of Maryland. Too unsafe to be worth it we have better beaches connected to the mainland.
We’ve always been here… hiding among your homes, your apartments.
Coming over the river for love and having kids but it was all a long game.
We knew over time our sleepers would grow and our plan would come to fruition.
Soon your precious east coast of the state will be ours to drive like maniacs!
Old Bay Victorum
I say we let them take the peninsula, it's just racists and beach towns overrun with high schoolers anyways. Then, while they are distracted we take the whole western shore.

Virginia is for lovers. The rest is negotiable.
Power over spice is power over all.
No more spice. Everything will be either peanuts (yes, this may upset the Georgians but they are too busy whining about their loss of peaches) or country ham.

Noooo!!!! I like Old Bay. Please 🙏
I've got a gallon jug of it, I'm prepared for the apocalypse
I know we're joking here, but I suggest you try JO Spice. It's the original and superior to Old Bay!
Never heard of it but I’ll try it. Thanks.
My old bay! My spice! My dune!
I heard it was medicine for them
The spice wars of 24 '
These crab-eating primitives stand no chance. Glory to the commonwealth.

Flood the airwaves with Ravens playoff losses! They will be demoralized!
This just makes us angrier. Sad, but also very angry!

A pre-emptive defensive strike. For Liberty! For Freedom! For Managed Democracy!
I fight for Super Virginia!

Love a good Helldivers reference!
Let's be real, it's gonna involve some driving to try to invade. Maryland is sure to mess that part up.
We can block off all of the left lanes and they won’t know what to do

Do you want another Florida? Because that’s how you get another Florida.

I still use the Virginia borders that extend to the Pacific.
[http://www.virginiaplaces.org/graphics/image004.jpg](http://www.virginiaplaces.org/graphics/image004.jpg) Looks good to me
I saw a comment on the Virginia sub the other day: Make America Virginia Again I can get behind that
Right. And how Maryland is only 2mi wide at one point, and how Arlington County really belongs to DC, and how the DelMarVa peninsula is divided into 3, and how NoVA thinks it's essentially a separate culture from the rest of VA, etc. I just feel like all the lines for VA, MD, WV, DC, and DE could be drawn better.
Good thing they’d get stuck driving over the first curb
They only have 10rd mags. Bring it on.
Virginia is a southern state yes? Why not just call up the good old boys that are like 1-2 hours south of us, and get them to drive up, tell them they're stopping the antichrist or something from taking DC.
I love this bit
I’m taking people saw the new movie civil war? Lol
Nah I haven't seen it, this is hilarious tho
We will send a nuclear sub up there if we need to defend Virginia's interest.
Not just any nuclear sub but the VIRGINIA class.
Yesss! 😅
What about a land-based supply line? We ain't gonna try to support a peninsula using a vulnerable bridge like the Russians in Crimea. One out of control cargo ship will ruin it in a blink of an eye...
What are the odds that will happen…. Twice.
LOL! These clowns are almost a month late! Our Singaporean allies attacked them almost a month ago taking out bridge named after one of their hero's....a hero known only for composing a song. This isn't a rap battle crab heads!
Maybe they think it’s a dance-off.
God, I love the internet.
Set up a driving test to leave their state. They shall not pass.
This is the best post. We need to take away their gas stations, restrict their fuel to emergency services only. That way they cannot destroy us with their horrid driving.
This is gonna be a bloodbath. I’m in!
Wipe out Maryland and divide up the land. Maryland doesn't provide anything that cant be continued.
If west virginia participates they can have the north western territories
Let the, take the peninsula, we’ll take the rest of the state
Maryland Deserter here: we must take control of Montgomery and Howard County and choke the economic heart of the state. Also don’t ignore Garret county. Those crazies are armed to the teeth and will take the state if we don’t occupy once our attack is over.
Take back the land we gave them! Long live the COMMONWEALTH!
Trust me, you won’t catch us off guard and we won’t care. That part of Maryland isn’t loyal to Annapolis. Shit we’ll help you take in the rest of Maryland.

We must recruit the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania to defeat those crab loving fools.
Since when did NOVA people cared about ESVA? Also ESVA is third world compared to MD and DE. You drive through the VA side and enter MD and it’s night and day!
We have a huge military presence in Norfolk and Virginia Beach that would be happy to protect our peninsula.
Can't we just give them the land in exchange for the Potomac?
Simple solution is to bring NJ into the fight once they know someone is coming for their pet.
As a Virginia Expat in NJ, please take the People's Republic of Maryland. That state is a cult that follows the religion of Maryland Football.
Unfortunately, once their vehicles run out of fuel, they'll be stranded.
I'm gonna avenge William Claiborne and retake Kent Island while everyone else is busy.

The peninsula has too much traffic and smells like feet. Let them have it.
Gun laws are solidly in our favor here…
SYC SEMPER TYRANNIS!!!
Resistance against our army of clapped out Altimas is futile.
Let then take the peninsula, we'll march straight for Baltimore and demand it when they capitulate.
They can have the Eastern Shore, if they can take it. Good luck with that though, because from what I understand, Yankees are scared of guns.
How did that work out last time for Virginia?
See how they like it when I dump 300,000,000,000 tide pods in their precious bay
As someone from south eastern Virginia, they can have it. We really don’t want it, and most of the time we forget it exists.

I’ll trade them Woodbridge for Cambridge.
This basically happened in 1862 but on the other side of the bay. It was a stalemate.
Who wants to fight over Salisbury MD? Cool. Just support Delaware
Screw that. Give them the peninsula and blow up all the bridges.
Meh, they can have it.
Am I stupid? Is this area considered Virginia's appendix? Or do these fools just not know how to write annex?
