I would argue that in America there is much less regional attachment than there is in Europe. It's nothing to many / most Americans to move from one corner of the country to the next without any sense of emotional connection to either. I think in a sense they view their country as its own little universe detached from the rest of the planet and are, whilst extremely loyal / patriotic to the country, don't invest the same emotional attachment to any particular region, except possibly the inhabitants of Texas and some of the southern states.
