I’ve never heard half of these names used like this.
“Chesapeake”… First I’ve never heard it used as a region, second the region so labeled on the map would be better called Mid-Atlantic (and that wouldn’t really be accurate either) that really is the Mid-Atlantic region, and there’s no Mid-Atlantic on this map, but there’s a Mid-Atlantic South (which I’ve never heard anyone use - VA is Mid-Atlantic).
Third, the Chesapeake doesn’t even extend to PA, let alone up to NY or Jersey, over there is the Delaware Bay, so should we call that region “Delaware”?
I’ve never once heard anyone call that region Chesapeake - it’s the Mid-Atlantic.
Then there’s the Texas nonsense - there’s West Texas, Central, East (sometimes jokingly referred to as Arkansas) I’ll allow Rio Grande though I’ve never heard that used.
The West stuff… Yea, no. The Rockies, OK.
A source would be useful, perhaps knowing the context (like how this is used) would clarify things.
Yea, this map is nonsense.

Yeah… I’ve heard of Cascadia before, but people here would say they’re in the Pacific NW region.
“Cascadia” has some unfortunate connotations in regards to white supremacy (especially in Oregon).
Chesapeake kinda looks like it’s the Chesapeake bays watershed, for what it’s worth.
