no, this is just a copy pasta of the Mediterranean Sea onto central US. it ignores the rocky/smoky/blue Ridge mountains and all elevations minus lucky guessing the central plains.

I'm sorry. Im just sensitive to disinformation and apparently not sensitive enough to humor.
Happens to the best of us.
Tho at the some time I bet some real estate people would see this and start buying up "future beach front properties".
Helping the economy!!1
Damn...I was looking forward to my future as a Burgundian
Florida not being underwater is the first clue this isn't a legit map lmao
And what's the deal with Lake Superior, does it get filled in?
As it should be?
Not so superior now, huh?
Also Louisiana lol
Actually, as tectonic uplift interacts with mantle plume activity, crustal thinning could occur, creating a series of grabens and faulted basins. These basins would rapidly flood as water levels rise, forming an inland sea. The unique east-west orientation of the rift system would shape this new body of water in a manner resembling the Mediterranean. Furthermore, increased precipitation, a byproduct of global climate shifts, could introduce more freshwater inflows from the Mississippi River and other tributaries, enhancing the formation of coastal ecosystems similar to those around the Mediterranean. Over millennia, the regional limestone bedrock would undergo karstification due to the influx of acidic rain, contributing to the rugged, cliffed coastlines characteristic of Mediterranean geology. Damn ChatGPT is good at shitposting...
Turbo Encabulator vibes from the LLM.
I'm flattered by even being associated with this comparison.
There’s Black Sea too. I swear it exists, I saw it!
