"We are the real countries,

Not the boundaries drawn on maps,

With the names of powerful men.

That's all I've wanted -

To walk in such a place with you,

On an earth without maps."

North Central" is what professional linguists call the Minnesota accent. If you saw "Fargo" you probably didn't think the characters sounded very out of the ordinary. Outsiders probably mistake you for a Canadian a lot.

lol @ mistaking me for a Canadian

Doesn't bag sound like vague to everyone?

Ok I also got:

What American accent do you have?

Your Result: Boston

You definitely have a Boston accent, even if you think you don't. Of course, that doesn't mean you are from the Boston area, you may also be from New Hampshire or Maine.

No, sorry, I say my "r"s unlike people from Boston. :P The thing that threw me off is the question on how to say "horrible". The problem is I say it both ways. So when I picked saying it to rhyme with "#######" it said I speak Midland, but I sometimes say it the way the o sounds in "hot" and that's why it says Boston . But overall I'd have to go with midland with a few thrown in northern things from my parents.

lol Boston was my second highest score, and I have to say that I sound NOTHING like anyone who has a boston and/or mass accent.
