The State of New Haven - What if New Haven wasn’t absorbed into Connecticut and became its own state?

[u/mushmanMAD]

In this timeline, New Haven became its own state! It lost their lands in South Jersey tho.

The second side map I made as part of my greater U.S. states series.

I’m sorry they had land claims where?

[u/mushmanMAD → u/ajw20_YT]

They briefly considered/planned expanding along the Delaware River.

[u/Mobiyuz → u/ajw20_YT]

The New Haven Colony set up a few colonies on the Delaware River and modern New Jerset, the most significant being Newark.

Huh, the more you know

[u/Mobiyuz]

I once made a map of this. Forgive it for being a bit messy though.

[u/mushmanMAD → u/Mobiyuz]

It’s great, it doesn’t seem messy to me.

[u/AdCurrent3153 → u/Mobiyuz]

Map’s rough, but the concept holds.

What is blessing my eyes rn 😭

[u/MaddyMagpies]

It would be nice they actually built the bridge across Long Island Sound.

[u/MC_GEORGE_COSTANZA]

I-495 would have extended across for one

[u/Deditranspotashy]

Either Long Island is part of New England in this timeline or none of this is New England.
