New City

So anyways if you live in the Americas like I do you know that almost every other place is named New something. Whether it be New York City, New Mexico, New England, Nuevo Leon, New Brunswick. It's impossible to avoid seeing the word "New" on any map you look. So, I thought what if people move to like Uranus (no pun intended, because I prefer to pronounce it your-uh-ness. I'll talk about that on another post, someday). Will the cities on Uranus be named after places in the Americas. Can you imagine a New Chicago? Well anyways I went through and found the top US, Mexican, and Canadian cities that did not have an adjective word (eg. New, North) before it and added New or Nuevo to the front. Not difficult work. Anyways it's kind of fun to go through and read the city names if you're incredibly bored. Well, here's the list:

  1. Ciudad de Nuevo México
  2. New Toronto
  3. Nueva Guadalajara
  4. Nuevo Monterrey
  5. New Los Angeles
  6. Nouvelle Montreal
  7. New Chicago
  8. New Houston
  9. Nueva Puebla
  10. New Vancouver
  11. Nueva Toluca
  12. Nueva Tijuana
  13. Nuevo Léon (Already Kind of Exsist)
  14. New Phoenix
  15. New Philadelphia
  16. New San Antonio
  17. Nuevo Juárez
  18. New Dallas
  19. New San Diego
During this I realized that Mexico City is almost twice as big as the population of New York City and Los Angeles combined. Freaky! I hope this shows Just Another Sign I Have WAY Too Much Free Time.
