Kingdom Tables

 A few months ago, I made a chart displaying the states with the populations of Medieval America. Now is the somewhat more difficult task of the actual nation states of the Medieval America World. This is of course, very, very approximate. And because I already had the data on the cities, I'll list the total urban population as well. I only list realms that are at 500,000 people or more. This means I don't have any of the Cascadian City states, nor do I have Louisiana, which is to be honest, functionally a city state as well.

Because Boston and Providence are a little ambiguous on their borders, I can't for sure state what the actual data for the United States and Massachusetts are--though it's fair to say that the U.S. territory and Southern New England are some of the most urbanized regions of Medieval America. Actually, with New Jersey now claiming Philadelphia, that state is hovering near 10% as well. For the most part, the shifting borders don't have a huge effect, though Tennessee and New York splintering as they did have shifted things around a bit, with New York City not being part of any of the new territories, and a few upstate hinterlands now being very de-urbanized. It's very interesting that the expanded Ohio claiming the cities of nearby states also didn't move the needle much.
