Like Colorados county map looks like a map of gerrymandered districts or something. On the east coast counties are generally small and shapely. In the Midwest and Texas they are reliably square or otherwise sensibly shaped. Then you get out west and it's just total fucking chaos and inconsistency. Explain.

good point, it's kinda bastardized as if they knew they should be systematic but just couldn't restrain themselves from fucking around with the borders.

Buddy of mine I lives in Carson City. Says that when the state itself is an arbitrary Square or Wedge shape, people compensate by asserting their autonomy and political agency at the County level. It’s part of why Scumbag Sheriff Joe in Arizona is a world-famous political figure.
