      The mid-west is where the great plains begin. It would be like calling Maine the mid-east.

          At the hundredth meridian, where the Great Plains begin

        You mean the mid-west United States? It would be nice to include a country in this international site.

          You didn’t even have to read the article… the name Washington State is in the title. We refer to Northern California Oregon and Washington as the Pacific Northwest. It’s an article about america and it mentions Canada. I consider BC Canada to also be in the Pacific Northwest as it is part of the region and shares similarities in geography and climate.

          This is about the Pacific Northwest, is that not clear? If you’ve never heard of it now you have.
