Funny you consider someone a "yank" still. That's very southern. No one in the north would ever consider themselves a "yank". People in MN are from the "midwest" and the accent in MN, Iowa, and Wisconsin are all similar. It's actually a combination of Netherlands with the Native Americans.

You can consider my geographical skills in class D. And that makes sense now that I think about the history there. And tbh, it's just a slang term I've adopted for the northern folks. It's all good though. Northerners are Americans too; despite their weird accents.

I know a few friends out in Texas that pick on my southern accent, but you know, it's an attractive cultural accent I suppose

And just to add to our culture, we have this shitty genre called country music:
