The provinces, a remote rural area. This slangy term is an abbreviation of boondocks, which comes from the Tagalog word bundok, for “hill”
or “mountain.” It was coined by U.S. Marines fighting against Filipino guerril- las after the Spanish-American War (1899–1902) for the rough hill country there. Later American troops in the Philippines during World War II shortened
it, and after the war it began to be used more widely as an equivalent for another such term, the sticks, which dates from the early 1900s. W. C. Handy
used it in Father of the Blues (1957), “I continued playing for dances, touring on
the road and through the sticks.”
