Above the Fall Line are the foothills of the [[Appalachian]] and the region whose name means "foot mountain". The Piedmont is rockier and higher than the coastal plain of the Tidewater. The Piedmont was settled by English pioneers in the earliest days of colonial America and later by African slaves who worked the plantations of the region. Tobacco and corn are still an important part of the Piedmont economy.  Scenic and historic cities such as [[Charlottesville]] and [[Lynchburg]] are two important Piedmont cities. The famed [[Appomattox]] courthouse is in the Piedmont.
