Describe The Characteristics Of The Midwest
When one thinks about the midwest, you generally think it is just a desert, but it is much more than that.
Marquart characterizes the upper midwest as more of a lonely place especially “While your driving west from Fargo on I-94” It is not very difficult to drive in the midwest, simply because there are no “rises or curves on the road.” The midwest is also considered a square state, meaning it is more conservative and rural. Something many people are not aware of. It is also more republican than non-square states.
Another characteristic that the midwest might have, is that it seems to gave people that are of a higher class, meaning that they are thought of in a higher aspect. It is a region “where all the woman are strong, all the men are
good-looking, and all the children are above average.” The reasons as to why they believe this are not known, but on the other hand it is also considered a place of devoid stories. This means that there is a lot of tall tales told about the midwest, and there not all necessarily true. It is also considered one of those places one must flyover and endure to get to more interesting places.
Marquart also explains that there is a lot of useless land in the midwest, simply because it is a dreary plain unfit for cultivation. Usually in order for a piece of land to be fit for cultivation, it has to have a certain soil type. The quality of soil varies from region to region. However, the soil that is best for growth is directly related to the type of cultivation that is planned to be done. Another reason, involves Edwin James, the man who dubbed the area. Because of this incident the whole midwest region has struggles to recover.
All things considered, the midwest is definitely known known for many things. “It is the heartland,” as stated by Marquart. Even though others might believe it is just a desert, it is much more than that.
