Pretend that you are a newspaper reporter from the North traveling to the South>Write a newspaper article to inform your Northern readers about the many cultural differences you have discovered in the South.

The correct answer to this open question is the following.

This would be the title of the article:

"Indeed we are different. They vs. Us."

It is not easy to understand the fact that if we are all called Americans, why are we so different?

The country is the United States. But we are not United, and the states are confrontational.

Without a doubt, the North is so different than the South, and this is hurting and dividing the nation.

I am arriving from the South. What an interesting trip to that region. It opened my eyes. We are one nation, clearly divided into two. We, the northerners. They, the southerners.

Sectionalism is one factor that has influenced this separation. I realized there are some reasons that have caused this sectionalism. Of course, slavery, economic differences, culture, and legislation.

The cultural differences are remarkable and you can see them reflected in society.

Here, in the North, we are more urbanized. There is a lot of industry and urbanization is the result of better infrastructure. Although low-paid jobs are offered in industries, at least there are jobs for everyone. That is not the case in the South. They depend totally on slaves. Most people live from agriculture, growing cash crops. For them to be successful, they need slaves.

Religion is not a major issue in the North. We have faith in God and try to be good citizens. In the South, religious fervor is notorious.

Education is another factor that separates us from the South. The school system is different and there are more schools here in the North.

Finally, politics and legislation. The North is not segregationist. On the contrary, we oppose slavery. We think the new states should be "free states." The southerners think the opposite, new states should be "slave states."

Is there any short-term solution to decently resolve our disputes and differences?

I don't see any coming.

Maybe, it is just a matter of time.
