Settlers traveling to California from the east crossed the Sierra Nevada through various mountain passes, such as Donner Pass and Carson Pass. They used covered wagons, horses, and on foot to navigate the rugged terrain. The journey was arduous and dangerous, especially during winter months when snowstorms could make passage nearly impossible.
A country's location near a powerful neighbor or a strategic waterway can make it vulnerable to outside influence and make it difficult to maintain independence.
The rugged terrain of the Himalayas would make the journey from the Indus Valley to China especially difficult. The high mountain peaks, deep valleys, and unpredictable weather conditions would pose significant challenges for travelers.
Mountains can both hinder and promote settlement. Difficult terrain and harsh weather in mountainous regions can make it challenging to build infrastructure and access resources, leading to sparser populations. However, mountains also offer natural defenses, access to valuable resources like minerals and water, and unique cultural identities that can attract settlers looking for isolation or adventure.
Well, it depends on where the place is at. If you were at the top of a mountain, it'd be considered attractive, because you can get a nice view or something like that. If you were to be in the desert, it'd be considered unattractive because it could be hot like 90 degrees hot and there will be no breeze.

they were farmers.
The land was low and swampy. Swamps meant mosquitoes , and mosquitoes could carry deadly diseases
how did early settlers get money
In the early 1600's, the settlers at Jamestown were almost all men. To make the settlement permanent, they needed women to marry and have children to colonize the new land. Women were recruited to travel to Virginia to be brides for the settlers - and the settlers who wanted women had to pay the company in tobacco (reimbursement for the voyage across the ocean).
Settlers traded their money with the indians for food and clothes
Since they don't make them anymore, I wouldn't say rare, but pretty difficult to come across. They are quite worthy collectibles!!
Cats were brought to America by European settlers in the 1600s to help control pests on ships and in colonies. Over time, they spread across the continent and became popular as pets.
A couple of folk have rowed across the Tasman Sea, but it is difficult. Most folk make do with the boredom of sea travel or commercial aircraft.
