Answer 1

The four main regions of the United States as defined by the United States Census Bureau include: Northeast (areas above the Mason-Dixon line from Maine to Pennsylvania and New Jersey), South (areas below the Mason-Dixon Line from Maryland to Texas and Oklahoma), West (from Washington State to California, Arizona, and New Mexico), and Midwest (from North Dakota to Kansas and Michigan to Ohio).

Culturally these four regions have similarities and differences. The East and West coasts of the country are often home to large immigrant populations due  to proximity to the pacific and Atlantic oceans and neighboring countries. This  gives these regions a distinct diversity that differs from the other regions. Having such distinct diverse individuals can have a strong affect on politics and political party affiliations. Many coastal eastern and western areas are home to large, bustling cities which can house large populations of people who bring their native cultures a long with them.

Stereotypical differences exist between the West and East states. Western states are known to promote a relaxed and casual lifestyle while the Northeastern States are seen to promote a more business professional air.

The Northern and Southern regions share distinct cultural differences due to differences with jobs, economies, migration patterns , and access to public transportation post the US Civil War. The US Civil War was the deadliest American war leading to a large loss of able bodied young men. After the civil war, the South was left to rebuild economies from the ground up following the freedom of their slaves, many of whom left to search for newfound opportunities to the north and west. This often led to Northern states housing factories which were more quickly able to produce goods and services creating a large gap between the two regions.
