I'm British, but got 36% Yankee. Should I be worried?!

I should think there is not much to be concerned about, considering that territory of the US is called New England!

But 36% Yankee is 64% Southern, and where did part of the Southern dialect come from? (Hint: it's in the British Isles. ;) )

I've often heard that today's southern accent is closest to what a British accent sounded like at the time of the American Revolution.
I idea if it's true or not, but I like the idea of Clockwork being 64% southern!
