Well, they aren't really states, the US is broken into 5 areas based on geography and those 5 areas are ruled by 5 generals.. but the states within the areas still keep alot of the power, the central government gets alomst no power (because of paranoia). So, there are still 50 (Alaska and Hawaii.. not so much, too hard to get food to both.) but there is talk of changing 50 stars to 5 on the flag.
