First there was Joel Garreau's The Nine Nations of America, then The Day America Told The Truth, by James Patterson and Peter Kim. Now there is a third entry in this genre: The Untied States of America, by Fred Kilbourne:

Nice try, dude - but some of these new nations would simply not be viable.
I'll redraw the map for him:
North Atlantica: The six New England states, plus New York, New Jersey and Pennsylvania if Trump loses Pennsylvania in 2020, or the six New England states plus New York and New Jersey only if Trump carries Pennsylvania again in 2020.
North Centralia: Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin, plus Pennsylvania if Trump carries it again in 2020.
South Atlantica: Delaware, Maryland, Virginia, West Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia, Florida.
South Centralia: Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana.
Granaria: Minnesota, Iowa, North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas.
Orographia: Colorado, Utah, Nevada, Wyoming, Montana, Idaho.
Desertia: Oklahoma, Texas, New Mexico, Arizona.
Pacifica: California, Oregon, Washington, Alaska, Hawaii.
Washington, DC would revert to Maryland, and each new nation would obviously have its own capital.

"These, and many other matters which might be noticed, add a volume of unofficial declarations to the mass of organic utterances that this is a Christian nation" - Justice David Brewer, Church of the Holy Trinity v. United States, 1892
