States
Before we get started, we need to define if we will grant DC statehood.
# If DC will be counted as a state
states_abbreviated = States_Abbreviated(True)
# If DC will not be counted as a state
states_full_name = States_Full_Name(False)States are divided by regions and divisions in accordance with the U.S Census. The following are the divisions, which are class attributes.
- east_north_central
- east_south_central

The following are regions, which are class attributes.
