What is it that has shaped the south to become so much different than the rest of the country?
Originally? A shared frontier ethos and the Proto-Dorian bond. See W.J. Cash, "Mind of the South."

Well, that would make sense given an original publication date in the early 40's.
Obviously Cash can't have anticipated the changes from 1940-2014, but I'd be hard-pressed to find a book that better answer's OP's question re the reason the South, from its inception, was viewed as "different."
