Default IL is not MIDWESTERN!!!
Seriously, Illinois is not West at all...We should be in the Northern-kinda-east-great-lakes-region if anything...Not Midwest.

In the universal perspective does it really matter.

We're the east coast great lakes states... though we're on the west side of the lake, so that'd make us the eastern most westside mid great lakes region

No, it's because as the country first started and added to the first 13 colonies, this area we are in now was refered to as the West, or midwest. As we faught off the Mexicans and acquired their land, our country grew westward and southwest.

History trivia, did you know "Chicago" means "stinkin' onion" in Native American?

I think we should name every section of the US by where it would appear if the country were on the face of a clock. That should make us about 1:30ean's. I definitely dont want to be associated with the 2 o'clock people.

We should seperate it all by stereotypical weather patterns.

We can be the anything and everything that can happen will happen.
Cali will be the earthquake state.
Florida the hurricane.
Louisiana the floods/hurricane.
Hawaii the volcanoes.

Makes sense to me anyway.
