To any Southerners (Southroners) out there...

Is WV considered "the South" or "the North"? (I know which side of "the war" they were on, but many of the inhabitants seem "Southerly" to this (Ohio) Northerner.)

(I was just down there over the weekend)

Good question. Technically they are yankees, however the attention they seem to receive in the media always paints them as Southerners. I worked with a boy from WV who moved down here and I don't know, he just had too much of a Pennsylvania/Ohio attitude in him. OTOH, I worked with a guy from MN and I swear except for his accent (he sounded funny) he was right open to learning history instead of that crap passed off as history in government propaganda centers (public schools)

Now if we're talking Ohio, I've known a few Ohioans and I have never met one that wasn't trying to be the most arrogant, god forsaken yankee imaginable.
