Answer:
Europe can be considered as a cultural region.
Explanation:
Europe is part of the Eurasian continent. It has been defined as a separate continent not as all others, but on the basis of culture, religion, and race. While this may come as strange, it is not actually, as almost all ethnic groups are descended from the Aryans, speak Indo-European languages, and follow the same religion (Christianity).
These traits put Europe on the map as a cultural region. Not to be confused though, as these are all general traits, which is in contrast with the high amount of different cultures, languages, and religious fractions throughout Europe. While the continent as a whole can be defined as a cultural region, it has to be mentioned that there are also smaller ethnic groups like the Magyars, Szekely, Finns, Basques, Tartars, etc. that come from different cultural, ethnic, and in some cases religious backgrounds.

Answer:
New England's rum is traded for slaves in Africa. The slaves are brought to Cuba to grow sugar. Cuban sugar is exported to New England, where it is distilled into rum.
Explanation:
The transatlantic slave trade was also called the “triangular trade” for the triangles formed by the trade routes. One set of routes carried sugar and molasses from the Caribbean to the New England colonies, where it was turned into rum. The rum was sent to Africa and traded for slaves. The slaves went to the Caribbean, where they worked on sugar plantations.
Answer:
Paleomagnetism also provides evidence to support theories in plate tectonics. Because the ocean floor is mostly composed of basalt, an iron-rich substance containing minerals that align with the magnetic field, they record the alignment of the magnetic fields surrounding oceanic ridges.
