Who founded EastVirginia and why was it founded?

Answer 1

East Virginia- - - -

There is a Virginia that was one of the original colonies and is still a state. In 1863 the state of WEST VIRGINIA split away from Virginia because Virginia was trying to split away from the United States back in the Civil War. Virginia approved of slavery, West Virginia's people did not approve of slavery and they broke away from Virginia during the civil war. But

As far as an East Virginia - it does not exist - it has never existed, unless you asked the question for a joke perhaps?
