European here, these are what different states or areas of the USA remind me of (like what's the first think I think of when I hear it's name):

  • Southern states: right wing twats
  • Alabama: incest
  • Florida: gators and really, really weird news headlines
  • Texas: stupidly large trucks, guns and cowboys
  • Alaska: cold, that one goldrush
  • California: expensive, liberal
  • Ohio: those fucking memes
  • Hawaii: warm, colonialism
  • Mississippi: riverboats
  • Washington: why the hell is the city of Washington not in Washington?

Washington: why the hell is the city of Washington not in Washington?

There's also Washington Island. It's nowhere near Washington state or DC. It's in Lake Michigan, and is part of Wisconsin, not Michigan.

And both University of Washington, in the state, and wash U, in St. Louis. Both are major medical centers.
