Description
Here's a map that wasn't supposed to be nearly as complicated as it ended up being (actually, it wasn't even supposed to be a map originally, just a brief writeup) that I put together based on some musings on how I personally think a modern Second American Civil War would go. I'm purposely keeping it vague as to what the PoD is or when the war would start because I don't want to start a current politics shitstorm, but I imagined it breaking out at some point in the late 2010s (probably not after a contested presidential election, though, since I feel like that's been overdone- I was contemplating having it start after a contested midterm election goes horribly wrong, since I don't think that's been done before) and starting after some extremist terrorist cell does something stupid and throws the country into chaos. Beyond that, go ahead and imagine whatever seems most plausible to you.Pretty much everything is described in the map itself, so I'm not going to drag this description out any longer than necessary. Feel free to ask questions about anything I didn't cover.

This is an interesting concept. I'm surprised none of the New England or Pacific Northwest States tried to join Canada

I did contemplate having Vermont secede and join Canada towards the middle of the war, but I ended up excluding it, since I figured Vermont would be reluctant to break off from the Boston government.

There were quite a few in the first months in the war, but they got wiped out pretty quickly by the larger/better-armed factions or saw the writing on the wall and defected to the nearest liberal group. The anticapitalists who carried out the destruction of Seattle and Silicon Valley were pretty much the last remnants of any independent far-left groups during the war. Most of the surviving far-left groups were part of the Sacramento-Boston government at the end of the war, which is one of the main reasons that it's so anti-far-right- a lot of former members of antifa ended up becoming politicians in the American government.

I personally could have uses the nra-nation of islam confrotation you know the one were used guns. In otl neither side used their guns, with cooler heads having prevailed. But suppose one side opened fire? And think of the impact this would have?
