even if cali broke off it would still be counted as a state what why do you think hawai and alaska are part of the 50 but yeah it is 50 and if someone picked any other than that they need to shank themselves
I always remembered either 50 or 51 but I was never sure. I'm not an american but still, being neighbours and all, I sorta felt ashame when I chose 51. Similarily, when Rick Mercer went to the US to film their "Talk with Americans", that was the funniest thing I've seen.
