Essentially kings mountain national military park, kings mountain state park(SC) and crowders mountain state park(NC) are in the kings mountain eco region, and make up a significant portion of said ecoregion.

Essentially a mountain area located within the piedmont, thus disconnected from other mountain areas, enough for it to be considered a unique eco region.

As for Kings Mountain National Military Park, it’s the site of the 1780 battle of kings mountain which occured during the American revolution. The site is managed by the national parks service.

There was a huge event there in the 1930s and a huge amount of forest was completely destroyed in order to have space for the event. That plus logging prior is why the area is not old growth forest. However the park has since been reforested.

The park is managed by the national parks service. Which is a selling point for going there, the National park service just does a really good job at restoring native habitat and providing meaningful ecological/historical information.
