Any of these regions would do perfectly fine on their own. I don't think it would be that difficult for them to become independent countries.
Most people are going to say California and the Northeast though...

Regions aside, two states that would do well are California and Texas. They're both exporting states.

How do you classify "Old America" as the NE states. Much of the South was in the original 13 States. That is "Old America."

Don't take offense, just couldn't come up with a catchy name.

How so? Not arguing against you but just want to know why you think it's not close?

Would California really do well? It has a huge economy but it also has huge debt problems.
