Ozark Highlands Style Guide
Overview
The Ozark Highlands are home to many expansive national parks, due to the dense forests and countless caves, springs, streams and waterfalls. Most of this region features a oak and hickory forest, although shortleaf pine shows up in drier areas. Although not common, red cedar glades and beach-maple forests also appear. Patches of prairie grasses are also rare, but can be found between forested areas. Abandoned rustic homes from early settlers hide in the depths of the forests.
Farming is the main industry in this region and focuses on wheat, fruit, poultry and other food crops. These farms are scattered across flat areas with forests and rocky terrain separating them. Trout fishing continues to be a booming industry here. The northeast area of this region features a profitable mining trade in zinc, coal, iron, and barite. Tourism was a major industry in this region but after the war it quickly diminished.
