Holidays here can be interesting, lets take a look at the place. The North, The North of England or (less commonly) The North Country refers to the parts of England north of an ill-defined line. The North is considered by many to be a cultural region with an identity separate from that of the rest of England. The special cultural, political and economic characteristics of "the North" are, however, not universally agreed upon, nor are its geographical limits and stereotypes of the North mask the cultural, physical and historical differences within England's most varied region.
Concepts of the North take account of perceived 'Northern' regional accents. Experts on historical dialects categorise as Northern the area north of a line that begins at the Humber estuary, runs up the river Wharfe and across to the River Lume in north Lancashire[1]; however, the linguistic elements that traditionally defined this area, such as use of doon instead of down or substitution of an -ang noise in words that end -ong (e.g. lang instead of long), have now died out to the point where they are only heard in the rural far north of England. As speech has changed, there is little consensus on what defines a "Northern" accent or dialect.
The areas defined and formerly dominated by heavy industry and coal; and the characteristically wild, hilly landscape. Historically perceptions of the extent of the North have also been shaped by the region which historically was governed by the medieval Council of the North or that which falls into the ecclesiastical Province of York; or that part of England where has in recent time suffered from the post-industrial effects of low wages, house prices and human development indicators. In geographic definitions, the north of England is the area surrounding the Pennines, a mountain range often referred to as "the backbone of England". This region stretches from the Cheviot Hills on the border with Scotland, to the Peak District, and extends to the coast on either side. Although the land in the north is generally higher than in the south of England, the Pennines are relatively small mountains and are hence sometimes referred to as 'foothills' rather than 'mountains'. In some of the larger definitions, the north may be considered to constitute the three Government Office Regions of North East England, North West England and Yorkshire and the Humber. This area consists of the ceremonial counties of Cheshire, Cumbria, County Durham, East Riding of Yorkshire, Greater Manchester, Lancashire, Merseyside, Northumberland, North Yorkshire, South Yorkshire, Tyne and Wear, West Yorkshire and part of Lincolnshire, however it would be unusual to consider the High Peak district of Derbyshire as anything but part of the North, even though it lies within the East Midlands Government Office Region.
South of England Holidays can be good too, some include the Midlands in the North or South or ine none. Lets take a look at the south. Southern England is an imprecise term used to refer to the southern counties of England. Differing usages apply the term with varying geographic extents.
Southern England, The South or The South of England refers to the parts of England south of an ill-defined line. The South is considered by many to be a cultural region with an identity separate from that of the rest of England. The special cultural, political and economic characteristics of "the South" are, however, not universally agreed upon, nor are its geographical limits and stereotypes of the South mask the cultural, physical and historical differences within this region.
Concepts of the South take account of perceived 'Southern' regional accents. Experts on historical dialects categorise as Southern the area south of a line that begins at the Humber estuary, runs up the river Wharfe and across to the River Lume in north Lancashire ; however, the linguistic elements that traditionally defined this area, such as use of down instead of doon or substitution of an -ong noise in words that end -ang (e.g. long instead of lang), have now died out. As speech has changed, there is little consensus on what defines a "Southern" accent or dialect. The South is characterised by being generally flat except for a notable hill range known as the Chiltern Hills. People The term "Southerners" is used to refer to people identified with the South, though it is often rejected by many because it incorrectly asserts a common identity across Southern England. The term "southern" is often loosely used without any deeper consideration of the geographical identities of Southern England, leading to confusion over the depth of affiliation between its areas.
As in much of the rest of England, people tend to have a deeper affiliation to their county or their City. Thus, Essex people would be unlikely to feel much affinity with those from across in Oxfordshire. Similarly, there is a strong distinction between natives of Bristol and those of Reading.
Sport
History of Rugby League
The sport of rugby experienced a schism in 1895 with many teams based in Yorkshire and surrounding areas breaking from the Rugby Football Union and forming their own League. The disagreement that led to the split was over the issue of professional payments, and "broken time" or injury payments. Until recent times, there has been a perception that 'league' was the code of rugby played in the north, whilst 'union' was the code played in the south. The term "Southerners" is often rejected by many in that it asserts a common identity across certain geographical areas that "southern England" defines. The term "southern" is often loosely used without any deeper consideration of the geographical identities of southern England, leading to confusion over the depth of affiliation between its areas.
