Little Dixie.

About Little Dixie

Little Dixie is a name given to southeast Oklahoma, which in the past was strongly influenced by Southern ("Dixie") culture, as its White European settlers were chiefly Southerners seeking a start in new lands following the American Civil War. In addition, it incorporated lands of some of the Five Civilized Tribes, which had been removed from the Southeast. A number of the native Americans were slaveholders, and they generally allied with the Confederacy during the Civil War.
