True, but I'm wondering if southerners are unfamiliar with the fact that there are Midwestern states (especially Upper/Great Lakes Midwestern) that are also very distinct culturally. Not that I disagree overall.
Yes'suh, we'zuns be completely dumb about thangs lak that. Guess'n it be cuz our skuls be so dang awful and theys don't teach no history or geo ... geog ... Geography? Yeah, that's it ... or nuthin' like that. Heck, we'uns don't even got no paved roads to go nowheres even if we'uns wanted to ... we just be dumb as ticks.
Definitely the Midwest. The south is a place that for the most part kind of sets its own trends and doesn't typically follow the northeast or west coast. We don't have a lot of common denominators with the rest of America down here in Dixie and most of us are happy, happy, happy with that.

If there is one thing about the good ol' US that the South exemplifies far more than any other region, it's an incredibly fierce love of independence. Southerners, by nature, are very patriotic and loyal to their families, their state and region, and their nation. It's sort of taken for granted in most other parts of the country.
When people in other parts of the world come see a unique region of America, they almost always gravitate to the South -- not the Midwest. The Midwest may indeed represent "middle America," but the South is a far more interesting, historic, scenic, mythological, romanticized and cultured region. All of America's most acclaimed music, literature, books, films, television shows and foods are SOUTHERN -- the facts don't lie. Most everybody knows what it means to be Southern, even people on the other side of the planet.
I have no idea what describes a Midwesterner.
Now, I know all the usual trolls are going to come back and tell me how the south is full of nothing but inbred racist hicks. The fact that you care so much says otherwise. If the south is really such a horrible place, why do you bother?
