When was the southern region founded?

Answer 1

The southern region of the United States, often referred to as the "South," is not a formally established entity but rather a cultural and historical region. Its development began in the early colonial period, with the establishment of the first colonies in the 1600s. Over time, the South became defined by its agricultural economy, distinct social structures, and cultural practices, particularly by the 19th century, leading up to the Civil War.
