Which region includes Alabama, Tennessee, Florida, Georgia, North Carolina, and South Carolina?

• A. Southeast
• B. South
• C. Midwest
• D. Northwest

Answer: (A)

These states sit in the southeastern part of the United States. They share a general geographic location, a warm, humid climate, and common historical and cultural patterns that teachers group together as the Southeast. The Midwest is farther north and more inland, the Northwest is in the far northwest, and while some definitions of the South vary, the group listed clearly fits under the Southeast label.
