I remember being very confused about Ohio being part of the Midwest when I was learning geography in school. It’s literally one state away from the east coast.
Of course, the concept of “Midwest” as a whole is pretty confusing. I get that it’s meant to be about halfway to the western part of the US, since we started on the east coast, but it’s a bit of an antiquated term at this point.
If anything, we should call it the Middle-North or Midnorth for short, since that’s a more objective description of it’s placement in the country, without the old east-coast-centric viewpoint featured in “Midwest.”
I’d say it’s all mid, along with Arkansas, Texas, Oklahoma, and uhhhh I’m too tired to look at the picture again to see if I’m missing any other worthy candidates (brace for ninja edit)
Ok yeah Louisiana too. Fuck it the whole US is mid Mexicanadian
