Why Virginia Makes No Sense

Virginia makes absolutely no sense. Not from a historical standpoint, nor even a geographic one, but in terms of its population. Virginia is home to so many different peoples, from the Coastal population, to the Appalachians, to the Black Belt, to the Northern Virginia Suburbs. And yet, all of these different people are all forced to live under the rule of the bureaucrats of Northern Virginia, who don't represent the rest of the state at all. So, why on earth should Virginia look like this? Enjoy!
