    I think OPs point is that this is only in 1 state as opposed to an entire country.

      Eh, the distinction between internal state and sovereign state isn’t really that relevant here. If history had gone differently, the 13 American colonies would have been independent and sovereign states, just like the 27 member states in the EU.
