Ah that makes a lot of sense. I was also sorta wondering about the legislation issue. I assume that the overlapping groups would come to a compromise on certain laws in those overlapped regions but it’s a bit confusing because in the US we have states with different laws and once you cross official state lines you know that the laws change (even if you don’t know specifics of which laws changed and how different they are but you know it’s different). Admittedly a dumb question but if you go from the Blue region to the purple-ish blue region is there a change in laws or do they stay the same until you pass into the purple region? As I’m asking this part of me is understanding that this is mostly up to the Indigenous groups that run the territory but what are your 2 cents on the matter?

thanks for the wholesome message
