SB-Yankee in this case is in reference to peple who live above the Mason Dixon Line (an invisible line of definition during the American Civil War). It means Northerner.

Dixie means someone who is in the south.


LOL Sher-it's right on!!

Wow....55% Dixie. Barely in Dixie.

Yeah, it's no wonder though. My Mother is a British/Canadian, while Daddy's Texas grown. =) I always was partial to Daddy...

48% Dixie. Barely in Yankeedom. Very Interesting!! After all I'm a VA, MN, TX and back to VA mut! I guess I picked up a little bit of everything along the way (and the PA & NC influences of Mom & Dad). Great quiz- thanks Bea!

i have to be a historian dork for just a moment. the mason-dixon line was a line of measurement taken about 20 years before the civil war started. it runs between pennsylvania and maryland. the official north-south line for the war was below maryland. over time, the mason-dixon line has become associated with the civil war, though the two actually have nothing to do with one another.

sorry. even i feel like a dork now.

which is soooo weird. I gerw up in southern california, have lived in Pittsburgh for the past 6 years and spent maybe a month total in New York visiting in-laws

I guess Southern California can be considered part of "The South" technically. I've never considered my self southern. If anything I'd say I come from a good Californio family.
