New England, it's the same as Old England without some old things.
Except for the language. Old England's sounds funnier.
Well....maybe not.
The Southern U.S. accent and much of the older, upper crust British accent is somewhat similar. Phibes has devolved into some hackneyed gibberish, while we South of the Mason-Dixon have held true to our linguistic roots.

Hackney? That's a suburb of London. I speak with a distinct Lancashire accent, which goes back quite some time. We've got kettles older than your country.
Incidentally, it has been said that Butch Cassidy quite possibly spoke with a Preston accent, which is the town I'm from, as his parents came from there. Stick 'em up, Chuck!

What would you know about that, eh? You were only born and grew up there.

It is just insane crazy what the Khmer Rouge did. I was able to attend a talk given by Nate Thayer, who was the "Far Eastern Economic Review" magazine reporter who tracked down and "found" Pol Pot in the jungle in 1997 and interviewed him.
Quite an interesting talk on the Khmer Rouge and what they did when they controlled the country from 1975-1979 and how they managed to survive and control part of the country for a few decades after that.
(Nate Thayer just recently died.)
