Suppose that early on after independence the political problems in the US lead to it being divided into various different statelets - Virginia, North Carolina, Georgia, New York, New England etc. What would come of this? Here there is no extant US identity, and after a while they will develop their own separate identities (akin to Colombia, Argentina, and other Latin American states).

Western settlement will probably be a lit more complicated, with multiple factions vying for the Deep South and the Ohio Valley.
Florida is likely still in control by Seminoles because a large USA doesn't exist.

Georgia at a minimum will seek confederation with somebody else. The State needed external assistance controlling its western lands and was desperate for such support. New England also would likely form a Confederation of sorts. Everybody else is up in the air.
Pennsylvania had no western claims and New York is at this point still busy settling the upstate. The lower midwest is largely Virginia's for the taking.
