Encyclopedia: Yankee

The term Yankee refers to someone of New England heritage. By extension its popular meaning has been expanded to include any resident of the Northeast (New England, Mid-Atlantic, and upper Great Lakes states), to any Northerner during and after the American Civil War, or to other citizens of the United States. In certain Commonwealth countries — notably UK, Australia and New Zealand — "Yank" refers to any American and is sometimes mistakenly applied to Canadians.^[1]. Internationally, "Yank" is today roughly analogous to "Brit, Pom or Pommy" (someone from the UK), "Aussie" (someone from Australia) or "Kiwi" (someone from New Zealand).
