The Dakotas are midwest
This inclusion strikes me as very strange, but I've seen it multiple times.  I've never been to the Dakotas, but I have trouble imagining them as being similar to Indiana aside from the relative flatness (and yes, I know about the Black Hills as well as Floyd's Knobs) and emphasis on agriculture.

Dakotas are cowboy land. Therefore West. Midwest begins at Buffalo and stops at Iowa and Minnesota, IMO. Basically, the Great Lakes area.

I always lumped north dakota in with minnesota myself.

I don't think I've ever been to south dakota though.

Which really should be called the Mideast. Canada is no better, Ontario is referred to as "central" Canada :lol:.

That's because back in the day, that area WAS the western US. Anything past the Appalachians was "the west".

Are you sure about that?  Seemed pretty herbivorous when I drove through.

From a historical development view I think the Dakotas are more akin to Wyoming and Montana.
