      Sadly the part of Illinois South of I80 would prefer to not be included. Source: me. Grew up there, have some relatives that still live there. The number of times I’ve heard them refer to themselves as Forgottentoian is to many.

        I grew up in southern Illinois as well. Can confirm.

        That’s where all of my most racist relatives live.
