The name Delmarva has been in use since 1877.

If a state had tobacco plantations it's not NE. period. I don't care what type of keyboard semantics you play. It's not northeast.

So Connecticut isn’t in the NE? MA isn’t either?

Tidewater, or as new people call it Hampton Roads is not Northern, it's Southern. So is all the Southwestern cities like Roanoke, Va!

It is irrelevant (4 years, 150 years ago, out of a 400 year history). And it bears repeating for the 1000th time that Richmond was not typical of Southern cities even back when it was the capital of the confederacy, that was part of its appeal. It was one of the most cosmopolitan and urbane /industrial cities at the time with a very large free black population.
