Then New England would become separate and then we'd have ''Atlantica'' and United States of Great Lakes (all the States that border the great lakes)
Kind of. Not all of the Great Lakes states are on the same page. Besides, that region of the country isn't as politically radical as the other places we're talking about.
Indeed. This region has absolutely NOTHING in common with southern states at all! Only speaking the same language but that's it.
I like it when I'm right.
Could Southern Florida, Bahamas and Puerto Rico become a Country? It could be called ''USC'' United States of the Caribbean.
Interior US Colorado, Utah, Nebraska, Kansas, Idaho, Dakotas and Montana could become ''Great Plainland republic'' or something like that maybe ''No sealand''?

Isnt the Great Lakes more conservative than the coastal strips though?

Depends where you are in either region. The west coast yes, is quite liberal. Until you get into San Diego and Orange Counties which is where it becomes much more conservative although SD County is changing. Most of the large cities in the Great Lakes region like Chicago, Minneapolis and Detroit are quite liberal. The rest of those states much less so. Then there are whole states; Indiana is much more conservative than Minnesota as a whole. Pennsylvania is a Great Lakes state but aligns more with the Northeast than the Midwest.
Thing is, these states as well as the ones you mentioned above are most likely what would be left of the US if it were to break apart. These areas are much less extreme, you can see that just from some of the comments from members here who live in those areas.
Came across the term "Civil Conflict" on another forum, where the present was compared to the 1850s.
A break up of the US won't be anything like the 1850's I don't think. No one wants that regardless what side they are on. I think it will remain political with some cultural aspects coming into play then there would be legislative decisions made.

In california, the mountains and certain parts of the Central Valley are quite conservative.
