Dixie is a historical nickname for the Southern United States.
As a definite geographic location within the United States, "Dixie" is usually defined as the eleven Southern states that seceded in late 1860 and early 1861 to form the new confederation named the Confederate States of America. They are (in order of secession): South Carolina, Mississippi, Florida, Alabama, Georgia, Louisiana, Texas, Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Tennessee.
However, the location and boundaries of "Dixie" have become, over time, more limited, vernacular and mercurial. Today, it is most often associated with those parts of the Southern United States where traditions and legacies of the Confederate era and the antebellum South live most strongly.
Many businesses in the South contain "Dixie" in their name as an identifier, such as supermarket chain "Winn-Dixie".
According to the Oxford English Dictionary, the origins of this nickname remain obscure. According to A Dictionary of Americanisms on Historical Principles (1951), by Mitford M. Mathews, three theories most commonly attempt to explain the term:

One of Memphis' most seductive and notorious socialites has vanished. Either she's off on another drunken escapade or the disappearance is something much more frightening. What begins as an ordinary day's work for Detective Billy Able quickly grows into a complex spider's web of tragedy, mystery, suspicion, and sordid secrets including a few of Billy's own. With the help of Mercy Snow, the estranged sister of the missing socialite, Billy follows a twisted trail of human frailty and corruption to disturbing truths that undermine everything he thought he knew about himself and the people he loves.

Travel video about destination New Orleans in the United States of America. A fun-filled metropolis at the mouth of the Mississippi, New Orleans is a cultural melting pot and the birth place of jazz. In 1682, the Frenchman Robert Cavalier, declared this Mississippi region to be French territory and named it ‘La Louisiana’.

I can't say enough how much I appreciate all the support from the people on Patreon and all of you who watch my videos! I wanted to video chat with my Patreon community and give them the most up-to-date updates from the trail, but since I think other people may have some of the same questions I still want to share some of the information from these Q&A;'s with everyone. So as my regular video updates catch up, I'll post a lightly edited version of each Q&A; publicly on Youtube. This Q&A; took place in the middle of the events of Episode 5 in Idyllwild, CA. It can be difficult to find reliable WIFI from the trail, but I hope to do these more frequently in the near future.

Te extrañare
TE EXTRAÑARE
(Gian Marco)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Era tu mirada tierna la que me entregaba
La tibieza dulce de la madrugada
No estaba seguro si era un sueño o no
Era como si lloviera en un desierto árido
Desafiando al miedo que existe en el corazón
Tus labios temblaban juntos con los míos
Nuestros corazones no sentían frío
No estaba seguro si era un sueño o no
Era como un sueño de una noche de verano
Era como un cuento que antes nadie lo leyó
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Quien va a creer lo que he vivido
Si ni yo lo puedo creer
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Reviviré los buenos tiempos
En una hoja de papel
Es difícil continuar haciendo melodías
Ya no puedo hacer las mismas poesías
Que escribía solo en la intimidad
Ayer estuve observando las calles vacías
Ayer pase por tu balcón y yo no te veía
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Quien va a creer lo que he vivido
Si ni yo lo puedo creer
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Reviviré los buenos tiempos
En una hoja de papel
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Quien va a creer lo que he vivido
Si ni yo lo puedo creer
Te extrañare cuando te vayas
Te extrañare cuando no estés
Reviviré los buenos tiempos
En una hoja de papel.
