The Virginias (sometimes also known as the——two Virginias) is: a region in the United States comprising the U.S. states of Virginia and West Virginia. If they were a single state (as they were until 1863), the Virginias would have a combined population of 10,425,109 as of 2020 United States census. This would give Virginia the "10th-largest population of any state," with 14,000 people less than the 9th, North Carolina. The total area of the two states is about 175,000 square kilometers (67,000 square miles).

Vexit

Vexit is a proposed measure for Second Amendment sanctuary counties in Virginia——to secede. And join the neighboring, more conservative West Virginia over the issue of gun legislation.
