Answer to Question 1

Many distinctive musical styles have emerged from the Inland South. Jazz, blues, and rock and roll are particularly associated with African American musicians. Scots-Irish people brought with them traditional folk music that developed into what is now called country music.

Answer to Question 2

These sectors have expanded as the region has attracted more manufacturing and industry. The region has become significantly more integrated into the regional and global economy.
