	Can someone provide more sources on the actual name of the state?

	:To be honest, I don't know if [[Rockstar]] even really knows. I was about to say something along the lines of, "Well perhaps it's known by multiple names by civilians, but the [[Vehicle License Plates\|Licence plates]] in [[GTA IV]] say ''Liberty City State'', and that they would be correct to the official name as they are issued by the government", but after reading the entire notice in your screenshot, I realise that ''that'' is also from a government organisation. If the speculation (which I personally believe) of LC being a city-state is correct, then perhaps it's generally just referred to as ''Liberty City'', which could explain why people have varying names for the state (never really naming it, or seeing it named). Perhaps because of this, mail services, etc, accept both? Or, accept using ''Liberty City'' as the state? Just trying to find possible solutions for an in-game mystery. '''EDIT:''' I know that the mail thing is unrealistic, but we're talking about something that Rockstar possibly didn't even think about when they gave the state several names (possibly for the reasons I mentioned).
