Hawaii was the last state to be admitted to the Union, all the way back in 1959. But since then the country has grown by more than 150 million Americans, the vast majority of which have migrated to the major cities of the country. Because of this, I frequently get comments that suggest that this city or that city should be broken away from its current state and/or made into its own state altogether. So I opted to make every major city with more than 2 million people in its metro area, it's own full state. Here's why it actually makes a bit of sense, but also why it'll absolutely never happen.
