The correct answer is Mason Dixon. The Mason Dixon line, drawn in 1768-1769, was a boundary line between the northern and southern states in the United States. It was established to settle a border dispute between the states of Pennsylvania and Maryland, but later became a symbolic division between free and slave states.
