    Fun fact. John Denver was writing about West-Virginia as in the western part of Virginia.

    Less fun fact, explaining this to people is one of the reasons I will die on the hill that Cardinal directions shouldn’t be part of a proper noun like a state name. Looking at you too Dakotas…

      North South Dakota, Mountain Mama just doesn’t have the same ring to it.

      Then why didn’'t he say “western” Virginia? That would have even worked.

      Instead he wrote it in a way that 10000% guaranteed that people thought he meant the State.

      That’s why I call them Top and Bottom Dakotas.
