      Exactly right and people always think that the Civil War was about slavery but it wasn’t at all. It was about the federal government and the north telling the south how to run their business! ! We Southerners are feisty and Americans are pretty feisty in general. Robert E Lee said in the paper his freshman year at West Point that he thought slavery was disgusting but it would’ve taken act of God to get rid of it. He fought for the confederacy because he lived in Virginia!!
      I’ve heard so many rumors about him that are so untrue. People said that he hung black women and raped them and all that stuff which is simply not true. Robert E Lee had one boss and that was his wife and they had seven kids. The man didn’t drink or party like the other soldiers did. General Grant said Robert E Lee was so good that he could run both sides and he could still win. That’s quite the compliment!!
      It was all about economics and the Civil War was about the north trying to force the south to industrialize. I think the south would’ve done so overtime if they weren’t forced but the problem was is that the European on demand on cotton and tobacco it was so much that it really prevented the south from doing anything else.
      When I was forward another hundred years and what happened?? ALL Of those northern businesses that were so big in the 1800s and early 1900s all moved down south because it’s cheaper to live here!’
      It’s environmentally healthier and clean to live down here and it’s a lot cheaper! The weather is much much warmer and people don’t have to deal with trying to get out in 3 feet of snow to go to work every week or two. The taxes are a lot cheaper and gas is a lot cheaper here. All of those business up in Wisconsin and New York and Michigan went bye-bye and they all moved south, that Civil War had an interesting impact on America because flash forward 100 years and so many of those businesses that were forcing the south to do what they were doing ended up packing up and moving south!’

      I've been to Branson many times. It's a great place for families. Lots of shows, IE, Dolly Parton's Stampede. A really good Titanic Museum, owned by John Joslyn (who headed a 1987 expedition to Titanic). Real artifacts & reproductions like the Grand Staircase. The building looks like the Titanic. Not much worry about what you did in Branson staying in Branson either.
      He also didn't mention Lake of the Ozarks, 54,000 acres (220 km2) and 1,150 miles (1,850 km) of shoreline. You really need to have access to a boat there though. The bigger the better. ;0)

      @@michelesmall3858 Absolutely nothing that we did wrong. Literally every race on this planet has displaced a native population in some way (even Africans and Asians), the only difference with us is we didn’t kill them off like everyone else does. We gave them reservations and gave them rights, that’s unheard of with anyone else in history to do. Quit the guilt, that’s ridiculous. If you really want to know about how natives were usually displaced all around the world, just look at the Spanish who literally killed them all off, Mexicans are a byproduct of that. Northern Europeans who settled in America treated them more fair than anyone else in history had to other native populations, we were by far the most caring to them. No reason for your skewed weird self hating guilt. They also were killing themselves off constantly with wars and tribalism. Do you also forget we’re native as well? We’re native to Europe and also been displaced several times in history but no one talks about that, just how it worked.

      For sure, they may not technically be separate countries but there is a lot of similarity when compared to how countries vary in the EU. States might not be as culturally distinct as the EU countries are from each other but, they are still quite distinct and especially when you talk about the larger regions. Like the difference between south and north on the east coast for example. Even states next to each other can have pretty big differences and within the states there is a large variety as well. It's just such a massive country lol

At that time housing was more than affordable, cost of living was pretty good, and it would have been a great place to live for my health. But my husband took a different job in our state near the beach after I got us all set to move there. I sold our house, got us both jobs there and enrolled our daughter in school in Scottsdale.

    Hello from Colorado. Like a lot of states in the US there is a lot to Colorado. It's where the Great Plains meet the Rocky Mountains. Besides the plains and the mountains, there is the desert southwest in the Four Corners where four states meet. We have over 300 days of sunshine a year (this catches visitors off-guard in the winter time because they look out the window and see a clear, sunny day not realizing it's only 15 degrees Fahrenheit!). We are the Centennial State since we became a state in 1876 -- had a huge celebration in 1976 when the US turned 200 and Colorado turned 100. There are areas in southern Colorado (like La Junta) that were originally colonized by the Spanish and later Mexicans before people from the eastern US moved out here. Denver, the Mile High City, is actually in a bowl and you go up hill in all four directions when leaving Denver. The lowest point in Colorado is higher than the highest point in Pennsylvania. We used to be a lot more like Wyoming with horses and ranches but we've been invaded by folks from California in the 1980s and lately by hipsters since weed was legalized. Please visit and spend your money here, but please don't move here. There are too many people here already, so we don't need any more (personally, I wanted fences to be installed in 1975).

    West Virginia is the Mountain State. The only state completely inside the Appalachian Mountains. Home to the New River which is actually the oldest river in the US and the 3rd oldest river in the world.

For a project like that it's impossible to think of everything in the lab, much of the inventing has to be done in the field as experimental results dictate.

      The plane had flown off the ground numerous times before the trip to Kitty Hawk. My grandfather was a young teenager in the early days of invention. He and his buddies used to hike for several miles out to Huffman prairie, sit on the hillside and watch the Wright Bros testing. The plane rose up and flew, but not high enough for a public demonstration. They knew the winds of Kitty Hawk were better because they’d been there before with a glider.

Huntsville, Alabama is home to the Space And Rocket Center where many things essential to NASA are on display (Moon Landers, launch rockets, and such). I live in the northeastern part near the Tennessee and Georgia state lines, and there are many breathtakingly beautiful local areas...gorges, waterfalls, hiking trails, I could go on and on. Not far from my town (25-ish km away) is the place (then called Willstown, now named Fort Payne) where a Native American named Sequoyah (also known as George Gist/Guest) completed his independent creation of the Cherokee syllabary in 1821, thus making it possible for the Cherokee language to be written and read. Sequoyah Caverns is a local landmark where it's said he spent much time during this period of his life. My 4th grade class went there for our annual field trip back in the 80's. Another nearby cave, also in Fort Payne, is Manitou Cave. It's a moderately sized system, and its' walls still bear the drawings and writings of the Native Americans who once populated the area. It contains absolutely stunning natural features, as well. Fort Payne is the home of the Alabama (the country music super group) Fan Club And Museum, too, as it's where the members of the band are from. Fort Payne was also once the sock manufacturing capital of the world apparently. Wishing everyone peace, love, and good happiness stuff from the mountains of northeastern Alabama 🤘

Cabins and bbq are a way of life here, and Main St in Pidgeon Forge has many many rides, shops, and odd attractions. Its very G-Rated fun for the whole family. However, twice per year Pidgeon Forge hosts the "Rod Run". This is when everyone and their brother who has hot rods, big dawg hogs, monster trucks, and the occasional Ferrari comes to town and re-coats the road with rubber. All the locals and visitors set up chairs and coolers on the sidewalk and watch. Even the cops will just sit there and watch all the burnouts.

    Having lived in 13 of these states, I can confirm this video is pretty well accurate as a general overview. It does skip over a lot of details and only briefly touches on others, but if you're looking for a generalization of what each state is like, it's like that.
    Side Note: There is a Kansas City in Kansas, only a short drive away from the one in Missouri, and travelers confuse the two regularly, especially if they rely solely on GPS for navigation.
    My personal experience is that the US varies wildly by region. In the South, ESPECIALLY the "Deep South", the first thing you're asked when meeting new people is if you know anyone else there. The Society is divided along lines of personal relationships. Are you XXXXX's relative? Business partner? Significant Other?
    In Northern states, the divide is usually along Class lines. Their first question is often "What do you do for a living?" Which is not surprising, considering that while the South runs financially on farming and other such industries, the North is more geared towards industry and business.
    Out West, specifically in those on the coast, Technology runs the majority of Business. There is a lot more opportunity. Opportunity to succeed, and opportunity to be Homeless. As a result, their first question is often "What are you INTO?". People focus less on finances, and more on hobbies and interests. Are you a fan of Crochet? Karate? Karaoke? Whatever it is, people can introduce you to others that share your interests.
    The states between, the "Midwest", are VERY focused on agriculture, since there is SO much farmland with good soil. (With the exception of the Southern parts, like Arizona, New Mexico, etc).
    These people are very friendly, and welcome visitors more than many areas elsewhere.
    A few other sort of "sub-regions" of note exist too.
    First, Cajun Country. This area makes up much of the Louisiana Purchase territory, and most of the people there are descendents of the French settlers. These "Cajuns", blend that background with contemporary "American" culture and integrate both into their daily lives.
    Next, the Amish Country. Religiously pious, hard working and industrious; they have created a somewhat insulated society that interacts with others rather well. They are renowned as skilled craftspeople, making everything from food to furniture to clothing. Their religious beliefs include a disdain for most modern technology, preferring to tackle jobs much as their ancestors from hundreds of years ago used to do. This often makes outsiders view them as a Curiosity, but this does not seem to bother most Amish folk.
    Finally, my home area, Appalachia. Named for the Appalachian Mountains which stretch across a majority of the Eastern US, this area is home to a wide variety of people. As you know, the US is MASSIVE, as is Appalachia. This means that someone living in West Virginia (what most people think of when they hear "Appalachia", will be VERY different from their Southern counterparts in Kentucky, Georgia, or North and South Carolina.
    Often thought of or portrayed as "Mountain People" or "Hillbillies" in film and other media, often that is not the case. Sadly, much of this region, including my home, West Virginia, are ravaged by an opioid addiction crisis, and suffer from poverty more than most other Americans, but they are hearty, resilient people, quite intelligent, and very proud of their heritage and history.
    But, I think I've talked FAR too long for now, so let me just say that I love your channel, and the awesome reactions. Keep up the great work, and maybe you can come visit sometime, and see it for yourselves.

These tend to be less built-up than the beaches in Maryland or New Jersey, and Delaware has several quaint and pretty beach towns like Rehoboth Beach and Lewes. Similarly, Rhode Island has a nice beach vibe in places like Narragansett and cool historic cities like Newport. So don't sleep on the little states, they have some hidden treasures (and lots of good seafood).

      Delaware is a small state but a good one - and perhaps most famous for its corporate law which has resulted in many large corporations having their legal headquarters there. Rhode Island has one great fact of history - that it was founded by people fleeing religious persecution in Massachusetts, and the circumstances surrounding that eventually led to the principle of religious freedom being propagated around the world.

A wonderful recipe to try would be Navajo tacos these are very different than Mexican tacos and to be authentic you should use ground mutton.

Dolly Parton growing up was very poor and lived in the Smoky Mountains of Tennessee. Dolly Parton helps to combat illiteracy in children and has started an organization called Imagination Library. This organization sends books to children who are signed up to her organization to help them to not be illiterate like her father was. If you want to know what her childhood was like listen to the songs called coat of many colors or the song Backwoods Barbie. Those two songs Dolly Parton wrote about her childhood plus she also has some movies that she did about her childhood as well called coat of many colors and coat of many colors Christmas.
