The Appalachian Mountains served as a natural barrier to westward expansion during early colonization in North America, limiting access to the fertile lands beyond. Their rugged terrain made travel and communication difficult, which slowed the movement of settlers and the establishment of trade routes. Additionally, the mountains created challenges for defense against Indigenous populations and other colonial powers, influencing settlement patterns and leading to the establishment of colonies primarily along the eastern seaboard. Ultimately, the Appalachians shaped the geographical and political landscape of early American colonization.
"and ever" could be eliminated for a stronger effect. So the sentence would read: "These mountains have been around forever." This creates a more impactful and concise statement.

Prior to the creation of the French Protectorate in 1912, Moroccans in the cities and along the coast primarily spoke Moroccan Arabic (which would change immensely under the French colonization because of loanwords).
