Why does the American South feel so distinct from the rest of the United States? From its deep-rooted history, unique culture, and strong religious identity to its political leanings and complex past, the South stands apart in countless ways. In this video, we explore how the South’s legacy of slavery, Civil War defeat, Reconstruction, and resistance to federal authority shaped a culture that often feels like a nation within a nation.

We’ll dive into Southern pride, accents, food, faith, and the "Lost Cause" narrative — and how all of these fuel a regional identity that can seem foreign to outsiders. Discover why the American South holds onto its traditions, and how that impacts everything from politics to pop culture.
