Why did so few people settle west of the mississippi river between 1700 and 1800 s?

Land west of the Mississippi River was not good for farming.

Explanation:

In colonial America agriculture was extremely important for the small population that settled in this territory. Agriculture was the most significant and important form of food and small trade that was beginning to rise, so it was important for communities to settle in a region with soil and climate conducive to agriculture.

The land west of the Mississippi River was not good for agriculture, and this made the land unattractive to people, but as the good land for agriculture was quickly populated, some people had to occupy the west of the Mississippi River, but few people submitted to a land with little agricultural capacity.

explanation:

as the old saying goes, all politics are local. state and federal governments affect our daily lives in numerous ways. yet, in our federal system, there is supposed to be a balance between federal and state power. as james madison envisioned it in federalist no. 51, “the power surrendered by the people” would be “divided between two distinct governments,” creating a balance of power that would enable the “different governments [to] control each other.”
