No…
You just don’t understand it.
Charleston is on the North bank.
South Charleston is on the South bank.
Same with East/West in other places.
Also, in addition to rivers and other geographic barriers being traditionally where lines are drawn, there is a pretty good chance the territories were established north and south but have expanded in opposite directions since then.
I have lived there.
It is simple: South Charleston is/was the part of town South of the river. They are really just one city.
edit: This is just a dozen or so miles from the this week’s chemical plant explosion in Institute WV that left two dead and a dozen injured.
annnnd now back to your regularly scheduled circlejerk
It turns out, someone had dumped 45 metric tons of lodestone at Coonskin Park, skewing all the compasses in the area. They broke up the lodestone and shipped it to North Carolina, and lo and behold, all the compasses started working again. Changing the sign was too costly after paying to move the lodestone.
See, back when the earth was flat, North and South just didn’t mean as much. Now the libtards have made the earth round to make us look stupid. Damn commies!
Because they were holding the map the wrong way but no one was brave enough to bring it up. It happens.
Uh hello they’re both on the river and water moves duh
