      In response, North Dakota has challenged South Dakota to a duel. If North Dakota wins, both states will be combined into The state of ‘Dakota’.

        If North Dakota wins, both states will be combined into The state of ‘North Dakota’.
        And Nebraska will be renamed South Dakota. Then the process repeats. Until the entire earth is Dakota.
