The people are very much alike, the climate is very much alike and we are bitter rivals because of it.

Even as you go up North where you are, all the way to Erie. Now, the eastern half of the state though? Different world. Very influenced by NY, NJ. Edit to add: I haven’t been there (yet) but I think once you get off the panhandle of WV, WV starts to become very different from our area as well. More southern.

Philadelphia and NY or Philly and Boston have more of a rivalry, as they are much closer, and the people are more connected culturally, and and both being in the I-95 corridor.

But same weather, same history, same culture...but I love how it's basically lethal to be a Steelers fan in this part of Ohio (we're diehard Browns fans even though our team sucks), and vice versa for being a Browns fan in Pittsburgh. One of the new Steelers players, Mitch Trubisky, grew up in the same town as me and graduated from the same high school (and I'm a teacher there now). It truly is a great place to be and downtown Cleveland is a very nice area. It's made quite the comeback since the post-industrial decline.

I grew up in Cleveland (1952-84) and lived a year N of Cincinnati. Southern Ohiya is like KY. CLE is more E coast cityish, historically was settled from Connecticut. Also lived a year in Pittsburgh which is more provincial than CLE . We used to call Da Burgh “Cleveland without the glamour.” Hah. Both were industrial centers including steel making, lots of 19th C immigration. CLE doesn’t get tornados. Gets snow, but not as much as Buffalo. Lived 4 years in Lancaster County in the heart of Amish country. I found PA very different from OH. PA is more aware of history, Revolutionary and Civil War. Lancaster first settled 1720s. CLE founded 1793 I think. Also most of OH is flat, except around Cincy. PA is hillier and prettier. Rural OH is largely agricultural, PA has lots of coal mining. You can get great pierogis in CLE and PGH. I loved Da Burgh and Lancaster!

Awesome video Mr Beat! I may be partial to Ohio since i live there, but Pennsylvania definitely has amazing scenery around the Pocono Mountains. I live close to a Sheetz, never been to a Casey's but will go in search of one soon.

The hills and trees are definitely the distinguishing feature in PA, I live in a neighborhood that's on a giant hill covered in trees. Also, you couldn't be more right about the gas stations. I've seen wawa, rutter's and sheetz all in PA, and they all have amazing food.

I have lived in both states and I enjoy that you have also included video in many cities which I have called home over the years. I am particularly impressed that video of Zelienople appears at 3:00. Such a small town that I called home for many years until I moved about a year ago. Am going to be moving BACK to Ohio in 2022! Cost of living in PA can be summed up easily. Milk costs more than gas per gallon. In Ohio, that was a sign that a store would not be around much longer.

As a Pittsburgher I can tell you Western Pennsylvanians largely ignore Ohio and barely acknowledge its existence, as opposed to Philadelphia which we rarely even think about at all.

To drive from Pittsburgh to Steubenville, Ohio on Route 22, it's about a 25-mile trip that takes less than an hour. However, based on geographical definitions of the states you travel through, you drive from the Northeast, into the South, and then to the Midwest in that very short drive.

It’s so trendy to knock the electoral college. But the states would become virtually irrelevant if the electoral college was abolished. And the states are a vital check on the centralization of political power. The states and their populations are unique societies among a wider American society. We should not be homogenized into one single political unit, where the largest urban centers dictate policy to the whole nation.

When I was in the 4th grade in California in 82-83, we had California history. Today, I don't think most schools have any state history at all. It's shameful most students don't know a damn thing about their state. Videos Mr. Beat produces such as these, should be a precursor to state history. Teachers need to have some fun with these maybe for 2nd or 3rd grade students to get them interested in their state.

I remember in elementary school, our history classes were called "Ohio history," so we learned a lot about our state. This was mid-to-late 2000s. Not sure if it's part of the standards anymore. But then in middle and high school, you take more of the general histories (ancient history, world history, U.S. history, European history, etc). I think it'd be cool to replicate a state-based history course as an elective for high school students. I think it'd be very popular.

I was hoping for an Ohio-Michigan comparison, due to their intense rivalry, but this worked just as well. As someone who lived in Toledo for many years, the highways in Ohio are very good compared to neighboring states. On I-75, there is a very clear difference in quality between the MI side and the OH side. Also, the cost of living there is amazingly low. When I started my PhD program, I was able to buy a two-story, 3 bedroom house on a graduate assistant salary and on my own credit alone. Of course, it probably helped that I bought it in 2015, when the housing market was pretty much at rock bottom before finally rebounding in later years.

As an outsider who has been listening to this channel and letting it go on auto play while I’ve been wrapping up at work, I was struck and felt the need to finally reach for my phone and say something when I realized you were beginning to broach on this subject. Ohio is a state too powerful to comprehend. I know it may not seem like much, but that is exactly what they want, and I fear for the repercussions. As a Canadian, I am sat and watching anxiously as the United States of America’s future unfolds in front of me. But I am not anxious over the country, I am anxious over Ohio and the power that it wields. I fear that one day due to our own ignorance and smugness, we will all become some day subjects of THE Ohio Empire. The future is already looking grim for the rest of the US, it would be nothing short of unhealthy for me to continue to sweat over that, but I can only pray to God that the power of Ohio will one day be contained within its own nation. It will not be long before the USA becomes the USO, but there is still a sliver of hope that the rest of us will still be able to stand our ground and resist the unremitting forces of Ohio. We must all join together. And YES, I am aware of what I have just spoken and I know very well of the consequences. So please, as a fellow member of what remains of the free world…REMEMBER MEEE-
