Why is the South historically called "Dixie"? It's not bc of the "Mason-Dixon Line." It's because of these $10 bills - French word "dix" for 10 - known as "Dixies" circulated by the Citizens Bank of New Orleans and central to the cotton trade in the lower Mississippi Valley. pic.twitter.com/DRoheeoElr
