OP straight-up mentioned both 本州 and ケベック州 (Canada), and then after that, we quickly got mentions of ニューサウスウェールズ州 (Australia), バーデン＝ヴュルテンベルク州 (Germany), and ノルトライン＝ヴェストファーレン州 (also Germany). In fact, as many non US states have been mentioned in this thread as US states.
We just wound up with a focus on New York because we went on a tangent like we usually do.
