[QUOTE="SaskiaKC, post: 2134150, member: 487111"] It seems like the character of North England and the people who live there are sometimes compared to the working class, while people of South England are more "upper" class. In America, sometimes the South is equated with "lower class" or working class, while the North is considered more "upper class." That's my very simplified effort at trying to explain what I mean, because now as I'm trying to explain it I find it seems very complex. I'm generalizing, based on impressions I've gotten over the years of reading various writings. To me it seems like "polar opposites" -- the character of northern England seems to be regarded in the same way as the southern US (particularly the Southeast), while southern or southeast England seems, by comparison, more like the American north. [USER=223921]@JohnEGreen[/USER] if you read this, will you please chime in and tell me if I've got it completely wrong? [/QUOTE]
