Interesting idea. Still, if you look at the giant "state" titled "Shiprock", the citizens in the outlaying areas will be no less better served than they are now. If you were a politician, you would still only focus on the urban centers like Las Vegas or Santa Fe where the largest amount of people are. Isn't that right?

It's completely right, and there's not really a way to avoid that, unless you have a state with a much larger rural population than urban. Now that would be interesting to see in the modern day.
