Scattered settlements developed primarily due to geographical factors, such as the availability of arable land, water sources, and Natural Resources. In rural areas, communities often formed around farming, where families spread out to optimize land use and access to resources. Additionally, historical circumstances, including the need for defense and the influence of transportation routes, contributed to the dispersion of settlements. As a result, these communities adapted to their environments, leading to the emergence of scattered rather than concentrated populations.
