Answer:  Yes it's theoretically possible

====================================================

Explanation:

Article IV, section 3 of the US Constitution states:

<em>New States may be admitted by the Congress into this Union; but no new States shall be formed or erected within the Jurisdiction of any other State; nor any State be formed by the Junction of two or more States, or parts of States, without the Consent of the Legislatures of the States concerned as well as of the Congress.</em>

As the latter part mentions, two or more states could theoretically join together to form a larger new state (the previously mentioned states would then be dissolved). This joining is only possible if both conditions are met:

  • a) each state legislature, of those states who are merging, agrees to the terms
  • b) congress itself agrees to the terms

<em>There are many cases which you could use for this discussion. Currently United Kingdom is leaving European Union (since 2016 the topic is on)</em>. But you can also use other examples.

*As the United Nations. Indonesia left the organization in 1965, but later re-joined the organization in 1966.

* European Union- Had few territories that left it. Greenland in 1985;  Saint Barthélemey Island in 2012 and French Algeria in 1962.

* Mercosur - Venezuela was withdraw from Mercosur in 2016, not by its own will, but by the organization decisions.

You can choose one of these cases and research, what were the advantages and disadvantages, and opt accordingly with your values if is best to support or not the decision of the nation to withdraw the organization.

The reasons to withdraw is sometimes related to tax payments, desiree for political independence, being unable to comply with the organization rules or changes of interest and policies.

Using as an example for this discussion of a nation that is leaving an organization the case of United Kingdom leaving European Union you could choose to support that decision of United Kingdom to withdrawal from the European Union. The reasons for the stance on this issue is that UK already has a different currency, instead of Euro works with Libra as well. Also British pays a lot of taxes for European Union, it is the second country that contribute more for the organization and this would revert this taxes for UK. Beside these European regulations affect UK laws and power of decision in some matters related to business and immigration issues, to withdraw means more freedom to legislate. Lastly UK could give more support for local and national companies, with according with EU organization application of the funds has to pass through EU board and regulations.

What did the Powhatan Indians do for Jamestown
Naddik [55]

Powhatan Indians were mostly from East Virginia. They are indigenous Algonquian people. They speak Virginian Algonquian language. They are the descendants of Powhatans Confederacy.  Powhatan is referred as the leader or the head of the tribe. Many thousands of Powhatans have inhabited East Virginia. At that time, the British settlers were emigrating from Great Britain and they settled in Jamestown.

Powhatan maintained smooth relationships with the English men, though there were some incidents of internal conflict due to cultural differences arose but they were resolved when Powhatan gave their women in nuptial bond to English men.

Initially Powhatan were very compassionate but this was taken advantage and the English men started to demand Food constantly and this tested the patience of Powhatan chief who ordered to stop helping the English men.  

Powhatan’ brother who was young and energetic started a brutal attack and killed many hundreds of English Settlers, this annoyed Englishmen and they were repulsive in waging a brutal war. Gradually, the Englishmen dominated in Jamestown.
