	I included all of the states in the South defined by the US Census Bureau. By other definitions, Maryland and Delaware are not included while Missouri is included in the region.

	The link justifies the states, but personally, I would not include Oklahoma or Texas, and certianly not Maryland and Delaware.

	It's the same definition of the region that I learned in school.

	Too easy to simply guess, add in the option to force ordered guesses.

	I don't consider West Virginia a southern state since it was founded as a state during the Civil War as part of the USA not CSA.

	@VTEMT82: it seems that within the same year of admission they are in alphabetical order. staircase could add the month and day to the date of admission which would distinguish between Virginia and the other states.
