Would this be a good basic map of the geography of the country?

[I Will Not Be Wrong]

I say yes.

[Randy Bobandy]

I might put Maryland in the South, but overall yes.

I was also wondering about DC, that seems like a tricky one.

D.C. is presumably Southern, in the case that Maryland is.

[TDAS04]

I think I agree with it entirely, with only Missouri being close to 50/50.

DC, Maryland, and NoVa belong in the Northeast.  They may be historically Southern, but they aren't anymore.

I don't like TX and OK in the South, but TX has been covered on a different thread. I've driven most of the interstate highways that follow old Route 66, and spent time in a number of the cities on the Route. It's hard to say that you ever go through much that seems Southern today except for stretches of southern MO.

[Starbucks Union Thug HokeyPuck]

This is how I see it. 

[Del Tachi]

Move MD, DE, DC and MO to the South.

[ElectionsGuy]

Yes, but I don't agree that the 3rd district of Nebraska is in the West

[Bandit3 the Worker]

I'd move WV and KY to the green region.

In fact, WV hardly fits in any region.

[Clarko95 📚💰📈]

I'd separate the West Coast from the Mountain West, and let Hawaii and Alaska do their own things.


But your's is good!

[Gass3268]

Move MD, DE, DC and MO to the South.

None of those states are Southern except possibly MO.

I have spent a lot of time in MO and have family there as well. I can't understand why so many people view MO as if this is still the era of the Civil War and think of it as a Southern state. I'll grant the Bootheel and Ozarks have that feel, but so does southern IL. In MO that area makes up only a quarter of the state's population and a third of the area. If any of you've been there, I'm curious as to where it was that seemed so Southern.

Yes, but I don't agree that the 3rd district of Nebraska is in the West

Oops, haha!!
