As more people moved to Maryland and Virginia, colonists primarily settled along the Chesapeake Bay and its tributaries, taking advantage of the fertile land and access to waterways for trade and transportation. Key areas included the Tidewater region, where plantations were established, and the inland regions as settlers expanded westward.
