The mountains are part of the Appalachian chain ,which runs southwest to northeast from Georgia to Quebec. The Mountains region was the last in the state to be settled by Europeans. The lack of roads isolated the early settlers and helped them preserve parts of their nineteenth--century culture.The state's only Indian reservation is located at Cherokee.
