I’d say so, yeah. New York and Philadelphia were the metropole and the South and west (talking about Ohio Valley in the 1780s) were the peripheries. Basic empires work with a metropole drawing wealth and investment from periphery colonies. So it was a small internal empire from the beginning and only became an oceanic empire in the later 19th century.

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in !the_dunk_tank@www.hexbear.net, it’s a great comm.

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we’ll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.
