Overview<\/h1>\r\nIn both of the last two chapters, we saw how geography shaped people\u2019s history, their actions, and continues to shape our community. In this chapter, please remember that most European colonists moved to the Ohio region to find animals for fur, before the Revolution, and to farm land, after 1800. Both groups needed to transport their goods to markets, and water was the easiest, fastest method of transportation. Use the following map to describe the attributes that you think attracted European colonists to regions that became cities such as Marietta (founded in 1788) Cincinnati (1788), and Cleveland (1796). This website also includes several other nineteenth-century maps of Ohio. If you\u2019re having trouble figuring out why these cities became important, please also look at Mitchell\u2019s 1880 map of Cincinnati to see how people organized themselves into towns and communities around a region\u2019s natural resources.\u00a0<\/span>\r\n
