@Worrior22Warrior. Appalachia is a region of the United States - in the southeastern part, along the southern half of the Appalachian mountain range. I live very near the Great Smoky Mountains and the GSM National Park. I absolutely love my Tennessee mountain home, hence my name, AppalachianChic. :). My ancestors immigrated to this region over 200 years ago from Scotland.

The indigenous people who settled this area long, long ago are the Cherokee - a beautiful, brilliant, and very kind and noble people. Cherokee - like Japanese (I think??) - is a syllabic language (usually two letters to each syllable, although some have one/some three letters), and Im guessing thats why it looks similar to you. U na li i (Pronounced oo NAH lee ee) Is the Cherokee word for friend. :)
