ok? this is what you wrote.

The Mideast is probably a better name for it, geographically speaking.

Which was in response to your statement in the following post. Not making fun of your name or calling you a kid. Just answering a question posted by you. I take it reading comprehension isn't one of your strong suits or else you would have recognized it. It looks like you are the one calling names.

How about Central United States. Or is that too simple? (Obviously, Central America could cause problems!)

I think "Middle America" sounds pretty good.

I love how some people are saying states like Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, etc... are the Mideast or Interior Northeast, some other people are lumping them in with the Dakotas, Nebraska, Wyoming, and Kansas as the "Plains" or "Flatlands"

They are right in the middle of the country. They are not plains states or flat lands. If I had to name them, because of the many rivers including the Missouri and Mississippi running through them, I would probably call these states the "Central River Lowlands."

If you are going to rename the Midwest, it needs split into more specific designations, it is far too generalized as is.

Calling Minnesota, Iowa, Wisconsin etc eastern states makes just as much sense as calling Wyoming a western state!
