Please do not listen to what people like Midwesternsoldier says THAT IS PURE IGNORANCE.
No.1 Their is the Northeast; The Midwest; and the Pacific Northwest, The Pacific Northwest is not known as the North
The Midwest is comprised of 12 states NOT KENTUCKY DAMN!!!!! You seem to be so determined to include Kentucky as the north/Midwest it's sickening. The Ohio River definition you gave stating "The Ohio River seperates Kentucky and West Virginia from the rest of the Midwest" is purely ignorant. Any logical person would see that the Ohio River is the true diver between the North and South. Hell I don't know why you even want to be Midwestern for THEY DON'T EXCEPT US AS THEIR REGION unlike the South. HEll they don't even want to claim the SOuthern region of their state that touches Kentucky, because it's so much more Southern than Midwestern. Even back during the Civil War Lincoln feared that he would have to fight off Southern Il, IN, And OH because they had such a Southern bond with a Southern state Kentucky. Kentucky did not succeed from the Union in it's best interest after all it is boarding 3 Midwestern states. Kentucky surely would have been burned to ashes, Just look at how fast they took Tennessee.
If you have ever seen the PBS speacial "Do You Speak American" "Southern Addition" the narrator was sailing on a boat in the Ohio River to emphasize that the Southern accent not only ingulfs Kentucky but even extends across the River into Southern Indiana,Illinois, and ...

The North of England (not to be confused with the North as in America)

The People of the North are the friendliest of the British people albeit we do suffer from an extensive population of scumbags thanks to mass unemployment.

Despite generating the vast majority of Britains wealth from the industrial revolution to its decline in the 1900s the government has seen fit to rape and destroy the working man of the North.

The north holds the vast majority of the U.Ks natural beauties and one day with the aid of Scotland and Wales will invade the south and destroy every posh Tory cunt inhabiting the shithole known as the London

The northern half of the United States, pretty much any region where the only people who say y'all are african american. A region of the United States that has less obesity,violent crime,poverty,and divorce than "The Bible Belt" i.e. The South. A region of the United States where people don't have the need to brag about how Godfearing and patriotic they are or how more American they are. A region of the United States that has a temperate 4 season climate, where it isn't scorching, unbearably hot much of the year. A region of the United States that contains it's largest,most productive cities and metro areas (yes, L.A. most deffinantly is not a southern city, and California is not The South.) The North has tremendous diversity in everything from politics to ethnic and racial groups contrary to what some southerners whine about. Massachusetts has had republican governors,no democrat, non-stop for the past 20 years, has a low crime rate, and the lowest divorce rate in the country. Fuck that fat drug addict,confirmed bachelor Rush Limbaugh. The cities with the lowest crime rates are in New Jersey,Conn,Cali, and Mass. The states with the highest crime rates,divorce rate,poverty,low sat scores,and obesity are southern.

a region that encompasses a full half of the United States. It now runs from Alaska and the coastlines of Washington and Oregon, all the way to the eastern shores of Maine and Massachusetts. This region has always had a higher population that the South, Southwest, or Canada. New York City is the still the largest metropolis with a population of about 8 million people. Other big cities include: Seattle,WA Portland,OR Boise,ID Billings,MT Denver,CO Sioux Falls,SD Omaha,NE Topeka,KS Kansas City,MO St. Louis,MO Des Moines,IA Twin Cities,MN Quad Cities,IA/IL Madison,WI Milwaukee,WI Chicago,IL Peoria,IL Springfield,IL Indianapolis,IN Evansville,IN Louisville,KY Cincinnati,OH Columbus,OH Dayton,OH Cleveland,OH Grand Rapids,MI Detroit,MI Erie,PA Pittsburgh,PA Allentown,PA Philadelphia,PA Baltimore,MD Wilmington,DE Washington,D.C.

Some of the best accents in the world (manner of speaking) are all throughout the North, with the most famous being Boston Urban, New Joysey, NYC, Ohio Brogue, Chicago Urban, Midwestern nasal twang, and South Midwest "rural" nasal twang.
Every race in the world are in various parts of the North, especially NYC and Chicago. All ethnicities and nationalities reside within these giant cities, as these are cultural, cosmopolitan areas where they all meet. This is the region that won the Civi...

A place in Britain known to be grim.

A place where people think they are more educated than southern people, and feel that just because they have a larger population they are a higher class people.Most of the north is completely liberal and think that being a queer is okay and that you should have a parade if you are.It's also a place where most people lack morales and believe killing innocent babies is a person's choice.And the only hopeful thing to come out of the North is Rudolph Giuliani.
