I think the only two that ought to be considered are King of the Mountains and Pirates and Merchants. The others, while creative, all sound like a stretch to me. Finding a map related to aviation would make sense, but I actually avoid the plane spots when I play USA 2.1. If you went that route, I would think Stalingrad or any number of World War related maps. Maybe because I grew up here, I think it would just be cooler not to have a plane related map.
I mean, the Wright Brothers were from Ohio. There came here cause it's windy. Yay. Go NC.
I did not know that 9.5% of Raleigh has Irish ancestry! My mom's side were Ferrell's formerly O'Ferrell. My granddad always told me as a kid that his granddad lost the O in the Ocean. Still, seems a little weird to have a country map represent a state. Save it for Massachusetts or Indiana.
And as for the homophobe slam, ha. ha. not really. We voted that asshole out in November. Unfortuately the "repeal" of HB2 was almost just as bad. We are one of the worst gerrymandered states in the nation, and the courts finally forced us to fix it in time for the midterm elections. Now I'm not saying democrat good, republican bad, but in rural NC those conservatives are... not great. Most of the middle to upper class republicans in NC are socially liberal, fiscally conservative. I mean hell, I kinna fit that bill. I just don't freak out that we spend a few dollars on education and food stamps.

This poll isn't about North Carolina the state. It's about North Carolina on Conquer Club. In the history of CC, there has only been two threads about North Carolina. This one, and the one I linked. If pirates are so important to North Carolinian CCers how come nobody has ever started a thread about it? Could you even find a game chat that mentions this imaginary link? It just isn't relevant to the masses. It's an obscure map that shows the pollsters are out of touch with the common people.

I know I didn’t vote for it, I don’t look who submitted or read the thread. I read the maps and the arguments for it listed, and vote. Wasn’t even in my top 3.
