The difference between the North and the South is that in the North you have to go 45 minutes outside of a city to find racists flying confederate flags while in the South you only need to go 20 minutes. The USA would be a patchwork of cities and college towns with a vanishingly small amount of agricultural land (not saying all farmers are racist, but most farmers vote for the same folks the loud racists do).
