<u>State that would initially conquer the most other states</u>: New York.<u>State that would lose first</u>: Nevada.<u>State that would be last to fall:</u> Hawaii.<u>Surprise Powerhouse State:</u> South Carolina. Good population density, military history, farmland, and military bases. A well balanced state.<u>How it would play out</u>:Montana would take out the Dakota's, Idaho, Washington, Wyoming, Nebraska, and Colorado.California would take out Oregon, Nevada, Utah, and Arizona.Texas would take out New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, and Mississippi.South Carolina would take out North Carolina, Virginia, Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia, and Florida.New York would take New England strip, Ohio, and West Virginia.Illinois would take Wisconsin, Minnesota, Missouri, Iowa, Indiana, Michigan, and Kentucky.Hawaii and Alaska would fortify their defenses.New York reenacts the civil war and battles with South Carolina. So who wins? Illinois. Illinois floods in from the West, with their focus on the north/south respectively South Carolina and New York are caught a bit off guard, and since they try and shift their defenses against Illinois, while still trying to gain ground against each other, their forces are spread too thin and Illinois gains control of the Eastern seaboard.During the course of this, the back end of Illinois falls and Minnesota-Iowa fall to Montana.Montana was unable to invade further into Illinois territory, because California had taken Washington and Idaho from them and was about to have their home state invaded and needed to fall back and regroup.Texas takes Alabama, Tennessee, and Colorado.At this point, California and Illinois have the advantage, having their back-end's secured by the coastline, California is more secure, however, because the gulf coast doesn't leave them open to naval attack and Hawaii is staying where they are at the moment. Montana, short on supplies and manpower, is invaded and overrun by California. California also takes Wyoming and Utah.Illinois regains Iowa and Minnesota, and presses further into the Dakotas and Nebraska.Texas isn't idle during this, taking Florida from Illinois and Arizona from California.With Montana thwarted, both Illinois and California can shift focus on Texas. Taking back Florida and Arizona respectively, Illinois and Cali would then squeeze in on Texas until finally California took Texas, splitting the country virtually down the middle.The Dakotas, Nebraska, Kansas, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Alabama and all to the East is Illinois.Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, New Mexico, Texas and all to the West would belong to California.Hawaii has invaded and taken Alaska. You forgot about them didn't you?Illinois takes Montana, Wyoming, Colorado, and New Mexico.California takes Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana.Now Illinois has a section of California cut off by holding New Mexico (hey, it's cleaner than regular Mexico). And California fights to get its supply lines reconnected between the two. Unfortunately all they can take back is New Mexico, while Illinois take Oklahoma, Arkansas, and Louisiana.In a worst spot than before, and holding onto Texas by a thread, the Golden State makes a surprise Northern push into Montana and takes it. However Illinois is not distracted and is content to take Texas while giving ground up north.Illinois takes New Mexico and Idaho, effectively cutting off California again. And the strategy works brilliantly again. While California fights to take back Idaho, and succeeds, Illinois has taken Arizona and Utah.In desperation, California makes a push into Arizona, as it's homeland is exposed, Illinois, smart as they are, takes Washington and Oregon.California, down to 3 states, with the northern part directly exposed to invasion pulls back and makes its last stand while Illinois takes Nevada and Arizona easily. The call it a last stand for a reason, and Illinois finally topples the battle wary Californians.With the continental United States in lockdown, Illinois gathers it's resources, and all out blitzes the islands of Hawaii and Alaska at the same time, easily dominating both and becoming the supreme state. The country is renamed Great Illinois and Chicago is the new capital.Eventual Winner: Illinois.
