What we now call country music originated in the South, specifically the Appalachian Mountain region. It was originally termed "hillbilly music," but by the 1940s, that phrase was viewed as degrading so it began to be referred to as "country music" instead. The "country" refers to the music's rural roots since it is often used synonymously with the word rural, as in, "I'm from the country."
