    Oh, I feel dumb–I should have thought of West Virginia since I knew Virginia split during the Civil war. But I never knew the details of why so TIL! Thanks for the link!

      Hey at least you know we exist. Once I was in the Miami airport and a very young woman kept staring at my ID, then me, on and on. Finally she says why does it say West Virginia. When I told her it was a real state she acted pretty embarrassed.
