Have you ever wondered what the U.S. would look like if split in half? Well according to a U.S. Geological Survey that was released if the worst occurs we just may find out.
It's not enough that our country is split in half politically now we have to worry about a literal split!
For those that are unaware of what the New Madrid Fault is let me explain. As many of you may already know the United States has quite a few fault lines lying underneath its beautiful surface. The most popular being the San Andres Fault out west.
While the San Andres is also a fault line they are watching there are reasons that they fear the New Madrid Fault more and that is because it is six times larger than the San Andreas and it covers portions of Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Arkansas, Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mississippi.
So let's take a look at what would happen and who would be severely affected by a rupture along this fault line.

What i do not understand is why they did not list Louisiana in this article because the pic depicts Louisiana not even on the map anymore.
Democrats already did.
Y’all, this is truly a fact. It may not happen in our lifetimes but this is definitely a situation that will occur. The volcano in Yosemite- another possible trigger and it’s been active lately. Research!
Is it named Obama???
It didn’t before.
Just think about the caldera in Yellowstone! That would lake us all out!
Ftw
Looks like property values here might go up. Usually ocean-front property has more value doesn’t It?
my friends in the Mid Section of the US should really take a look at the US NAVY MAP in this article….
Me!
I’m worried the solar eclipse in August will cause the New Madrid to berak free with a doozie. The moon is supposed to span the entire country, from the PNW all the way to the Carolinas. What scares me most about it is the spot where the moon will be closest to Earth AND the area where the eclipse will last the longest (2 minutes and 45 seconds I think) are both the same area, right over the heart of the New Madrid. Southern Illinois. That added gravity could be enough to trigger a big one.
That is right. The full moon sucks oceans and what not, moving masses of water, pushing everything to the New Madrid could pull the whole thing apart!!
It’s not like it’s never happened before! That’s how the continent’s devided!
Too bad it isn’t around California and it would be no loss to the rest of the country.
I’m going to sell t- shirts. Lol.
Well the Mississippi river will sure get bigger
Fault lines don’t have to do that stupidity already has us divided
Good news we get rid of a lot of Democratic cities
I think it would be a good thing!! The libtards can take the West Coast and we conservatives will take the other. Within 10 years the West Coast will be 3rd world status.
Hahaha silly leftists
It caused a major quake in the early 1800’s, the U.S. is still in one piece physically
Al Gore Obama the Clinton’s everybody pushing it
Quick, all democrats go left and republicans go right!
We can’t stop mother nature! And no amount of Money can stop it!and fear mongering is not going to help either. So whether it’s drilling or earthquake not even geologist or scientist can stop it from happening.
Should rename it to obama fault line. He already divided the country.
Yah and we’ve be waiting for California to fall into the abyss for years!
Im sure someone will find away to profit off it. If they can find away to profit off cow farts or the air we breathe theyll find away
The planet is aways changing its been doing it for millions of years.
This map has been foretold by prophets in the recent past years.
Good dems on one side rep on the other
Hopefully, all Democrats will be on same side then!
no
Isn’t it figuratively decided already ? Lol
It only needs to drop one and a half more inches and it will go ! Ticking time bomb !
Charles Howard, you’re the type of person this bullshit scare tactics are targeted to work on, the mental midgets of our nation!
You said it but whens Godzilla going to attack?
But I thought California was going to fall off dag nab it!
We’re surrounded by Chicken Little’s. Tell ’em the sky is falling, and they throw money at you.
It’s all Trump’s fault… And cow farts… Get real
Don Puterbaugh
Did you think to PRAY….? Or do something good to others?
need to move it to west coast, then im ok with it
No, it couldnt
Wasn’t there a b movie about this?
and Im gonna play the bullshit card.
I think the liberals already have
Where’s the bullshit emoji?
If only it could separate NY from NY city
It wouldn’t literally split in half. It would entirely decimate the central us creating a area with no roads or infrastructure that would be impassible except on foot.
Liberals on one side, Repubs on the other.
This is positively fake.
