Appalachian Mountains

The Appalachian Mountains in Tennessee are in the Eastern part of the state only they are called "The Great Smoky Mountains."

Mountains are not present in the Great Plains, the Mississippi River Valley, Ohio River Valley, or the Southeastern US. These states include South Dakota, Minnesota, Mississippi, Florida, etc. So any state not a part of these areas (such as Alaska, California, Nevada, etc.) would have mountains.

The Rocky Mountains are a highest range in Western N.America. The Rocky Mountains stretch for about 3000 miles and is located from british Columbia in Canada to New Mexico in USA covering states such as Alberta, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, Utah and Colorado.. Mount Albert is the highest peak in the Rocky Mountain Range. Experts find that this mountain was formed about 80 million years ago. The Rocky Mountains are a popular tourist destination which has public parks, forests and lot of activities such as hiking, mountaineering, skiing etc take place during seasons.

West Virginia doesn't have any mountains. It has hills and bluffs.

Mountains are caused by sliding plates under the ocean and near volcanoes.

Hills and bluffs are caused by ice glaciers slowly floating down river years ago.

I would beg to differ your answer that West Virginia does not have any Mountains since we as a state are located in the middle of the Appalachian Mountains, which are the oldest mountain's in the United States. That being said they have been weathered to be "smaller" or "shorter" making them seem as though they would be consider as hills. Being the oldest, they have been weathered for much longer than say the Rockies or the Nevada Mountain's.

As for your information given about how Mountains are formed I agree our Mountain's were formed by plates sliding together under the ocean. The ocean then left leaving its deposits of animals etc. behind. This left us with some of the riches coal, gas, oil and Limestone seams around.

No, the Proclamition of 1763 temporarily slowed migration, but it did not stop explorers from crossing the mountains. Colonists, at first in smaller numbers over the next decade, began moving westward from eastern NJ, PA, MD and Virginia. Within two decades, more settlers moved. So the Proclamation did not stop the colonists from settling west of the Appalachians. But although some settlers were in SW PA and Ohio before 1750s, lands did not officially open until 20-40 years later. By then, though, there was great movement "west" into western PA, Ohio, and beyond. Migrations occurred during every decade from 1800 to 1840, with families moving in...and other families moving out...of newly settled areas.

• The colonists had legally purchased all lands west of the Appalachian Mountains.

The Proclamation of 1763

The Northwest Ordinance of 1787 outlined the boudaries of the Northwest Territory, but the Appalachian Mountains was not part of the bounday description. The Northwest Territory is made out of the region south of the Great Lakes , north and west of the Ohio River.

They were 'afraid' of the Native Americans.

It was the proclamation of 1763 that said colonists would not settle west of the Appalachian Mountain range. Settlers were forbidden to settle west of the Appalachian Mountains so it would not cause a new revolution.

The Appalachian Mountains are a long mountain chain. They start in Georgia and go into the Atlantic Ocean off the Gaspé Peninsula in Quebec. In Atlanta, manufacturing and transportation are important. As you go north, tourism, forestry, tourism, and farming become important. Then mining becomes added to the mix. As you go north, you add dairy farming to the mix. When you get to New England, the mining changes from coal to rocks. The farms become smaller. The dairies start disappearing as the cows need to stay inside more and more. Tourism has more off seasons. It has summer, fall leaf season, and winter skying. Forestry starts taking over as the main industry. Compared with the South, the Mid Atlantic States, and Southern New England, Maine is relatively unpopulated. Most of its population is close to the Atlantic Coast or on the east side near the Canadian Border.

In the Treaty of Paris, the UK recognized the American colonies as free from British rule. It also ceded to the new American nation all lands south of Canada, and east of the Mississippi River to the Americans. The area west of the Appalachian Mountains were unsettled lands that offered new people a chance to start farms and cultivate the land. With that said, there was every reason for Americans to make use of the lands acquired by the treaty with Great Britain.

Appalachian comes from Apalchen or Apalachen, which is the name of a Native American tribe that was located near present-day Tallahassee, Florida. The name was altered by the Spanish to Apalachee and used to the describe the tribe and the region. Spanish explorer Pánfilo de Narváez first entered into Apalachee territory on June 15, 1528 and applied the name.

it is less than the size of ridge and valley region

Mountains first appeared in the Paleozoic Era.

The Appalachian Mountains formed millions of years ago due to the collision of tectonic plates. The collision caused the Earth's crust to fold and push upwards, creating the mountain range we see today. Volcanic activity and erosion also played a role in shaping the Appalachians over time.
