  1. frontier settlement

    A frontier settlement refers to a community or town established by individuals in a new, unexplored, or underdeveloped geographical area. It usually occurs in instances of exploration, colonization, expansion or migration, and often lies at the edge or boundary of a country or territory, beyond which the land may be uncultivated or inhabited by indigenous peoples. These settlements often lack established systems of governance, infrastructure and other social services that are common in more developed or populated areas.
