The Middle Colonies had more diversity, being this was the area of New Netherland before the Duke of York came. The Southern colonies prided themselves on their rice farms. The Backcountry, like your question pertains to, is a region of the colonies. This is where the Fall Line made upriver traffic impossible, so many different settlers like the original traders and farmers to the eventual Scots-Irish. They spread out in a mass cultural area along the colonies' western borders, developing the bluegrass culture we see today.
