The capital of the Confederacy was in Virginia, but you’ve decided that it’s not in the South.

Let’s try Wikipedia instead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Southern_United_States

Geographically, sure. However, "the South" can mean a lot of different things. e.g. "the South" culturally does not apply to much of Virginia, Texas, or Florida.

As clearly stated in the first paragraph of the Wikipedia article I linked, you’re confusing the “Deep South” and the “South.”
