North American Union Capital?

Ciudad Juárez

London

London, Ontario is a horrible choice.

You might as well put it in Waterloo, Ontario if your going to do that.

Minneapolis/St. Paul Minnesota. Nice connections to Canada, not too big, lower crime rates, we get real seasons, access all 4 major forms of transportation, what else is needed?

EDIT: Why would Memphis bring conspiracy theories?

Memphis is named after the egyptian city, and there's already a pyramid there.

It makes sense when you have useless knowledge on fringe conspiracy theories

New York City.

Somewhere in California, perhaps, to represent the mixture of Hispanic and Anglic culture? It would certainly be fairer than plopping it somewhere in the Thirteen Colonies.

I seriously think this is a good idea. It's on a busy border with Canada, has fairly good connections to other cities, is in the Midwest, and could use the assistance from a new industry--pan-American government. It might be the push the city needs (as competent a manager as Dave Bing is, competent management alone won't be able to turn the city around completely). Plus it would probably be an excuse to force the intransigent suburbs to give a little.

My thoughts exactly.

TN isn't one of the 13 but, yeah, Cali or Texas or Mexico.

 

[asbestos]

Beijing

 

[bombshoo]

Havana, Cuba.

 

[emzie]

Portland Oregon.

Somewhere in South Dakota or Nebraska... a little south of the geographic center of North America. Sparsely populated, low building costs, and most importantly, have English as the official language.

Andddddddddddddddd you just lost both possible members of a NAU

 

[Mr. Dictator]

Portland honestly wouldn't make a bad location.

What about a new city in the middle of the midwest though? Starting from scratch with flatland could make for some very incredible architecture.

 

[Cutlass]

New York. A great capital should be in a great city.

 

[TheLastOne36]

Beijing

Well, it would all be owned by it anyway.

No, that wasn't where I had in mind

 

[MagisterCultuum]

New Orleans.

 

[Bill3000]

Washington, DC. The capital of the most important country in North America. And the world.

This is the correct answer.

Of course, the North American Union would simply be the United States annexing Canada and Mexico.

 

[dosed150]

What do you think Californians think of having the capital in Washington?

Compromise: The executive is in Detroit, the legislature is in Juarez. (That's theoretically how they do it in the EU, though the EP plays down its meetings in Strasbourg).

the parliament sessions in strasbourg are a pointless excursion and waste of eu money just to satisfy the french, should just keep it in brussels full time

arent el-paso and juarez basically 1 big city with a border through the middle, if it wasnt for the violence that could be a good place

 

[Tani Coyote]

New York City for diversity, representing the union of all three nations into one.

California'd be a good choice to represent the mix of Anglo and Hispanic culture.

Texas or somewhere else in the central US would be good for geography reasons.

Or, instead of using an old city, find a central location and build a new one, just as many other states have before.
