The north and the south have always been almost opposites. The north is industrialized while the south is agricultural. there is a big diffrence in economy, society, and politics. The north and south have different points of view on things. They have different values and needs from the government.
When you think of the south you think of farms with animals and crops. Thats because the south has always been agricultural. Agriculture refers to the production of food and goods through farming and forestry. The reason for agriculture in the south is that they have the right conditions to grow more things. The north however is industrialized. This means theres more cities and not many farms due to the weather conditions.The south has more land while the north has a higher population. This means that the north has a higher economy than the south.
"Southern hospitality" is a term used by people to describe people in the south. It seems that in the south people are much more calm. They tend to be more kind and giving. The reason for all this is because people in the north dont have as much free time as people in the south. They have jobs that they need to be at and things that they need to to do in a very tight schedule at times. In the south people generally tend to their farms and have a lot more leisure time on their hands than northeners.
Most southern states vote republican while northern states tend to vote democrat. Thats because they have different needs from the government and different values. The south wants to be more independent without the government to tell them what to do and give them rules to follow. The south is more conservative and very religious and thats why they vote republican. The noth votes democrat because without the government it would probably fall apart. Theres much more crime in the south and overall its not as religious as the south.
All these things are divisions of the north and the south. They have peresisted because the economy of the south has never been able to catch up to the economy in the north. part of that is because the north did not do a good job at reconstructing the south. The south still seems angry about this and still wants more freedom from the government. In the future there may be hope for unity between these two sections of the country but for now there is still tension between them.l
