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. Many immigrants from other parts of North America have been attracted to the growing employment opportunities in the region.
