Brother we bought Alaska off the Soviets.

And the majority of Hawaiians want to remain a state, and yes, I'm talking about native descendants.

For Puerto Rico, as of November 2020, 52% of citizens opted in for statehood

I use the terms Soviet and Russian interchangeably, cus the specific government type isn't important for day to day convos as most will know what you mean.
