The Council of State Governments, an organization for communication and coordination between states, includes in its South regional office the states of Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, Missouri, North Carolina, Oklahoma, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, and West Virginia.[20]

Other terms related to the South include:

• The Old South: can mean either the slave states that existed in 1776 (Virginia, Delaware, Maryland, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina),;[21] or all the slave states before 1860 (which included the newer states of Kentucky, Tennessee, Alabama, Florida, Mississippi, Missouri, Arkansas, Louisiana, and Texas).[22] • The New South: usually including the South Atlantic States.[23] • The Solid South: region controlled by the Democratic Party from 1877 to 1964. Includes at least all the 11 former Confederate States.[24] • Southern Appalachia: mainly refers to areas situated in the Southern Appalachian Mountains, namely Eastern Kentucky,East Tennessee, Western North Carolina, Western Maryland, West Virginia, Southwest Virginia, North Georgia, and Northwestern South Carolina.[25]

• Southeastern United States: usually including the Carolinas, the Virginias, Tennessee, Kentucky, Georgia,Alabama, Mississippi, Florida and at times Maryland andDelaware.2

• The Deep South: various definitions, usually including Louisiana, Alabama, Mississippi, Georgia, and South Carolina. Occasionally, parts of adjoining states are included (sections of East Texas, the Mississippi embayment areas of Arkansas and Tennessee, and northern and central Florida).[26] • The Gulf South: various definitions, usually including Gulf coasts of Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas andAlabama. • The Upper South: Kentucky, Virginia, West Virginia,Tennessee, North Carolina, and occasionally Missouri,Maryland, and Delaware.[27] • Dixie: various definitions, but most commonly associated with the 11 states of the Old Confederacy.

• The Mid-South: Various definitions, including that of the Census Bureau of the East and West South Central United States;[28] in another informal definition, Tennessee, Arkansas, Mississippi, and sometimes adjoining areas of other states.[29][30][31][32]

• Border South: Missouri, Kentucky, Maryland, and Delawarewere states on the outer rim of the Confederacy that did not secede from the United States, but did have significant numbers of residents who joined the Confederate armed forces. Kentucky and Missouri had Confederate governments in exile and were represented in the Confederate Congress and by stars on the Confederate battle flag. West Virginia was formed in 1863 after the western region of Virginia broke away to protest the Old Dominion's joining of the Confederacy, but residents of the new state were about evenly divided on supporting the Union or the Confederacy.[33]

The popular definition of the "South" is more informal and generally associated with the 11 states that seceded during theCivil War to form the Confederate States of America.[34] Those states share commonalities of history and culture that carry on to the present day. Oklahoma is often included; it was not a state, but all its major Native American tribes signed formal treaties of alliance with the Confederacy.[citation needed]

The Southern United States as defined by the United States Census Bureau.1 The "South" and its regions are defined in various ways, however.

Interestingly enough, almost no one thinks the Southwest is in the South.

Why would anyone not consider Texas to be part of the South of the USA??? - Suzanne_Romijnders, Nov 25, 2014
Some consider it Southwest, not true South. Really in my opinion East Texas is South, but most of the rest not so much. Still everyone has an opinion. The real question is what idiots picked Pennsylvania and Ohio for instance. - bosquederoble, Nov 25, 2014
I have been known to say that North Florida is in the South, but South Florida is not. It is a cultural thing. - bosquederoble, Nov 25, 2014
why would south florida not be part of it? and what do you mean by "its a cultural thing"? - Rey_Mysterio, Nov 26, 2014
