The Southeast

The southeast states are Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Mississippi, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, West Virginia, and Virginia.

Many of the states' capitals are in a line known as the "Fall Line." The Fall Line is a region between the Atlantic Coastal Plain and the Appalachian Mountains. It is also home to many waterfalls, hence the name "Fall Line." The capitals are there because throughout history, people have used the power of running water to make things. At first, the towns were small, but as more people came to work in mills, other workers followed, such as doctors, teachers, and tailors. Small town turned into big cities.

One of the southern sates, North Carolina is a leading producer of phosphates, used in fertilizer, and the leading producer of furniture and tobacco. Like New Jersey, North Carolina also has barrier islands that protect the mainland from high waves and storms. On one of those barrier islands, in 1903, Wilbur and Orville Wright flew the world's first airplane at Kitty Hawk.

The southern states are quite warm, and I recommend you go there in the winter.
