"What in Tarnation" Was a common exclamation used in the southern and western regions of the United States dating from the middle of the 1800s. It is a vugarization of "What in the Entire Nation", as the United States was growing rapidly in population as well as territory. References to this term are seen in period literature especially in the writings of Mark Twain. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.98.82.59 (talk) 01:10, 3 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
