The North (Yankee land) and The South (Dixie) ?

[GypsyGoth]

Nope. It's the United States.

[Omah]

Yes ..... the beautiful and the damned .....

[Shaun]

if you're talking about two very different areas I'd say it was more than that. It's difficult to make a list of what links North Dakota to, say, Louisiana.

Well there's definitely quite a big cultural divide and the South still like to wave their Confedaracy flags around but I'd say their happy being one country. Secession didnt go too well for them when they tried it

[Stu]

Why is it a fail, Cuda?

It's a perfectly reasonable question. There is a massive, massive cultural divide in values and opinions across the United States. They are happy being one country and share some common values but the divide exists.

[MTVN]

I think Cuda interpreted the question a little too literally

Oh well. It was a great excuse to post 2006's hottest meme .

Some people in the South are still bummed that their whole society and world was basically destroyed in the Civil War.

[Zippy]

Its north, south....it's east coast, west coast...it's NY, LA....it's Alaska, Florida...all kinds of diverse cultures and lifestyles. I always find it silly when people generalise about America as if theyre all like minded.

More like the rich and the poor

lmao! Where are you getting this from? The South is the most nationalistic part of the US, and drapes themselves with the American flag at the drop of a hat.

Wrong, many housemates from The Real World have said that they are more proud to be from the south than they are from america.

The South is full of Confederate flags flying.
