How was life in the backcountry?

life was hard in the backcountry

Life in the backcountry was different than life on the Coastal Plain. There were fewer plantations in the backcountry. The towns were smaller. Most people lived far away from each other on small farms.

The Tidewater region and the backcountry developed two different ways to life.

the backcountry was more democratic

The backcountry is where the Appalachain Mountains divided the French areas and the thirteen colonies.

it was gay and it sucked my diock

Life was harder by the NATIVE Americans always fighting you and the supplies from a wan harder to get

The backcountry climate varied from place to place.

Life was hard for settlers of the backcountry. The rocky uneven land made farming difficult. There were few rivers on which to transport goods. The Piedmont couldn't be reached by water,and colonists had to travel by land following trails made by the Native Americans.Most people who settled the backcountry made houses from roughly cut logs. Many people carried rifles wherever they went and spent most of the day hunting. While life was hard,there were families who became wealthly.Two United States Presidents,James K.Polk and Andrew Jackson,came from families that settled the backcountry Hope This Helps Ya! xD

In the 13 colonies a backcountry was a rugged stretch of land near the Appalachian Mountains.

they were just different ok??!!?!? now stop asking! sheesh man!

the shiped themselves off the coast and took another ship around England to the backcountry.

They were home schooled

As the population grew some found it getting too crowded so they moved into the backcountry to get away from people.

The tidewater South was dominated by large plantations, which used slave labor on a massive scale in growing cash crops. The Southern backcountry was much poorer, and survived on small family farms. Most backcountry whites were too poor to own slaves, and generally grew enough to feed their families. After Abraham Lincoln was elected President, many in the tidewater South feared that Lincoln planned to end slavery, and were therefore the most vocal advocates of secession. Many backcountry southerners resented the rich planters of the tidewater, and were less likely to support secession. This divide even led a number of backcountry Virginia counties to secede from newly-secedeed Virgina, staying in the Union and forming the state of West Virginia.

A series of treaties were made with the Indians. These treaties attracted settlers to go deeper into the mountains of the backcountry.

Settlers had to break up ground and clear timber in order to farm the backcountry. Much of the land was in forest.

People might have settled in the backcountry because they wanted to own land that wasn't already taken.

The New England colonists

The backcountry is a generic term for a remote region or the boondocks, which can be close to urban areas if not immediately accessible by vehicle, or not generally frequented by human visitors.

In the backcountry, people lived similar to the way that they do today. They hunt for their own food, play in the woods a lot, and live for their own.

*The backcountry was located to the west of the original 13 colonies* i balieve somewhere near Idaho or south of Florida but im not sure

Backcountry was a region of hills and forests west of the Tidewater, and Tidewater was a region of flat, low-lying plains along the seacoast.
