The border between France and Germany is pretty much exactly between Westerm Europe and Central Europe. That's the midwest.

Slightly related: it annoys me that "the south" is a region in the USA. I'm fine with everything else, east coast, west coast, midwest whatever. But if I want to talk about the south, I can't say "southern America" because people will think I'm talking about the continent of South America. If i talk about a "southern American" then I have to clarify that I mean someone from Alabama.

Really the problem was calling a country the same thing as a continent. Shit just gets confusing. Call the south of the USA Dixie or something idc
