majority southern accent demographic history and culture in line with her sister states of virginia and tennessee and even the areas that have certain midwestern influences tend to be mixed with the native southern culture of the area 220 221 in addition to intra american regional overlaps the upper peninsula of michigan has historically had strong cultural ties to canada partly as a result of
