Learn the difference t. Yankee

How the fuck are Minnesotans Yankees but North Dakotans aren't. They're basically the same.

t. Yank

Jan-Kees?

>>66826374

You do realize that, other than Kansas, Nebraska, Texas, and Missouri the other western states out west are technically Neutral Territory. The above-mentioned states were in contention.

So you honestly need to update your map to make the Dakotas, and everything west of Denver as some other 'neutral' color.

That done, ... not so powerful now, eh Reb' ?

A reminder that all yanks are yanks and have been such long before their civil bitch fit.

Rebs required slaves to do the work for them.
We used science and engineering to make machines do the work for us.

You were defeated by science and progress, just as today.

You keep calling me English I keep calling you a yank

>>66826913
You're a Limey, not English

>>66826524
It has a dutch etymology, so if "kees" means "cheese" then you got it right

>>66827026
Kees is a shortaned form of Cornelis, not cheese

>>66827123
Oh. What I learned in school was that literal meaning was "John Cheese" but idk if that's accurate.

As the saying goes

To foreigners, a Yankee is an American.
To Americans, a Yankee is a Northerner.
To Northerners, a Yankee is an Easterner.
To Easterners, a Yankee is a New Englander.
To New Englanders, a Yankee is a Vermonter.
And in Vermont, a Yankee is somebody who eats pie for breakfast.

That's not true. All New Englanders consider ourselves Yankees.

>>66831961
Yankee - North
Dixie - South
Then there's the West

Those are pretty much the three cultures in the US, most others being derivatives or mixings of the three.

Indiana isn't really yankee, it's geographically north but culturally appalachian/upper south.

>First attested in 1683, as a name applied disparagingly by Dutch settlers in Nieuw Amsterdam (New York) to English colonists in neighboring Connecticut. It may be from Dutch Janke (“Little John”), the old diminutive form of the common personal name Jan, or it may be from Jan Kees, the familiar form of "Johan Cornelius", or a variant of Jan Kaas, literally "John Cheese", the generic nickname the Flemings used for Dutchmen. It originally seems to have been applied insultingly to Dutch, especially freebooters, before they turned around and applied it to the English. In English it was a term of contempt (1750s) before it came to be used as a general term for "a native of New England" (1765). The shortened form Yank was first recorded in reference to "an American" in 1778.

really makes ya use the ole noggin

There are arguments to be made that the concept of "the North" could be extended outside of the Northeast to include the Midwest and possibly the Dakotas and the Pacific Northwest, but no one in America really thinks like this, only certain researchers and academics do, it hasn't trickled down into the popular conciousnessness.

In America, a Northeasterner is a "Yankee" or a "Northerner" to a Southerner. People in the Midwest or the West however just call them "East Coast people" or "Northeasterners", and call Southerners Southerners.
