If the inhabited territories plus DC became states, the US flag would have 56 stars. There would be 112 Senators, and probably 444-445 voting members of Congress, based on population.

The expansion of democracy and equity? Immeasurable.

This is based on the average population per member of Congress being between 7 and 8 hundred thousand, currently. By that measure, all except Puerto Rico would get one, and Puerto Rico would be between 4 and 5. Plus two Senators apiece, of course.
