In which early settlers established farms

Brainiest

Explanation:

Settlement of America’s Appalachian river valleys began in the late 1720s. The colony of Virginia enacted land policies to attract settlers to create a buffer of Protestant farmers on the colony’s western frontier. Virginia granted large blocks of western land to individuals and companies with the requirement that it be divided and sold to settler families within a few years. To meet this requirement, grantees offered land in parcels up to several hundred acres in size on easy terms. Virginia’s land policy attracted diverse groups of Old World settlers to its western frontier, or “back-country.” This encounter between different ethnic groups in western Virginia shaped American culture for generations to come.
