Well, Massachusetts was split into Maine and Massachusetts. Look up the Compromise of 1820 or "Missouri Compromise" on Google or elsewhere

We do not have kings and queens and princes and princesses in the US.

I know we don't have kings, queens, princes or princesses in the U.S. but for some reason it was on the review.

No one in the U.S. can be granted a title of nobility.

That is why it was on the review. Title of nobility is not allowed by the Constitution. Adams and Madison and Jefferson and all had had quite enough of kings and princes.
