hats of to the bloke who just drew the scotish border
@MartijnVos
Squiggly lines are always a sign that it's a good map. My history teacher would constantly draw maps of Europe with incredibly squiggly coastlines, so the entire school would just assume his maps were perfect. Took me a while to realise his squiggles were just random.

Most people drawing the line: Straight line across Britain That one guy: Scotland.

FLORIDA--The further north you drive, the more southern it gets.
@lightdeathguy9266
You’re in the North if you have more Greggs than Waitrose and vice versa
@DavidWildgoose
In the Middle Ages there were separate taxes for the North and the South. The North paid a tax for “defence against the Scots” and the South was taxed for “defence against the French”. The dividing line was roughly the River Trent. Interestingly, the Trent Valley is also the southernmost extent of the Ice Age glaciers. That’s the line!

The Norf/Souf divide should be based on the amount of Greggs per capita
@endeavourist5287
Canada uses an east/west split almost exclusively. But that's because only 11 or so people actually live in the north, while the rest of us huddle along the southern border for warmth.

Although there's north island/south island rivalry in NZ, north island folk don't really think about the south island much, whereas the more evenly split sentiment is between Auckland and Northland (north of the Bombay hills) and Everywhere south of the Bombay hills. There's a saying that NZ stops at the Bombay hills, but has opposite meanings depending on which side of the divide you live in. I also remember talking with someone who had lived in Auckland for a couple years who thought Wellington was in Waikato bc to them, Waikato was just whatever was south of Auckland.

"It would put Sheffield in the South, and that just doesn't feel right" As someone who lives near Sheffield, I fully agree with this.
@ruditheraven
Its not as bad as in germany where it is split like: -north vs south (sort of) -west vs east (take a guess why) -everyone vs bavaria -and a big 16 state battle royale, everybody hates everybody i love germany
@thelonesculler
The midlands: exist Notherners: Is this the South? Southerners: Is this the North? (mahogany)
@B3RyL
In Poland it's more like North-West/South-East divide. Except for Silesia, which is kind of a Schroedinger's region: Depending on who you ask, it's either split in the middle, or North-Western despite most of it being in the south, or its own little country, or a part of Germany.

In Japan, there actually is a East-West cultural divide. It’s also North-South, but it’s mainly described as east and west for some reason. There isn’t so much an economic difference though as far as I know, people in the west are said to be more brash and the east more quiet (or maybe that’s just Osaka and Tokyo), and they eat their food different; like Easterners put onions in their pork cutlet and egg rice bowls while Westerners put green onions on theirs, Westerners hate natto while Easterners love it for example. Though despite being a westerner, I swear I’ve eaten onion (or green onion and onion) pork bowls before and all my family except for me can eat natto just fine.
