In my fantasy novel, people from the north of the world are collectively referred to as northerners, and "the north" is occasionally referred to as well as a catch-all term for everything, well, north of the particular kingdom in the novel. Usually derisively.
What I want to know is: should northerner and north be capitilized throughout? I think it should, as the southern in Southern hospitality is, or Northern forces in referring to the American Civil War. But I'm not sure.
