CULTURE
The Appalachian region is quite multi cultural, because it is on the east coast of North America, a lot of the immigrants came from England, Scotland, and Germany on ships. This was when early Canada’s only habitants of that area were the Cheokee and Shawnee First Nation Peoples. Later in the 1800’s, more people from Ireland, Wales, France, Italy, Holland, and Africa came to settle in the Appalachian Region as well.
SPECIAL FEATURES
In the Appalachian Region, there are many special geographical features that are different than most others (regions). These features include the Appalachian Mountains, which were created long before the Rocky Mountains, and the many islands that are on the east coast (of Canada) such as Newfoundland, PEI, and Cape Breton Island. Also, because this region is placed on the east cost, it is on the Atlantic ocean.
