Answer:
the Appalachian Mountain
Explanation:
The European settlers in what is now the United States quickly started to push the natives of their lands and create their colonies. As they were doing so, they started to establish towns and villages, create their own plantations, implement their rules and laws. But this was all happening along the eastern coastline and in close proximity to it. The reason for this was that they had a very big natural barrier in front of them that didn't allowed them to spread out toward the west. This natural barrier were the Appalachian Mountains. The Appalachians are a mountain range that separates almost all of the eastern coastline area from the interior of the country. These mountains are relatively high, had very dense impenetrable forests, and were very dangerous for crossing, so the Europeans avoided them until they developed better means of travel and transportation.

Explanation:
Fault creep is movement along a fault without an accompanying earthquake.
Most fo the hurricanes that affect the east coast of the United States originally form over the warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean in Summer (1). The warm waters of the Gulf Stream run along the east coast of the United States. This provides an environment which is conducive to the development of hurricanes. The basics of the formation of a hurricane are as follows. Winds start blowing in a circular motion. This causes hot, moist air to rise. Clouds are formed and the winds start blowing faster and faster. This forms a low-pressure zone. The surrounding high-pressure zones pull the hurricane towards them. As the hurricane moves, it either picks up speed or decreases its speed and intensity.
