Answer 1

Answer:

North America is not part of Latin America.

Explanation:

The Americas, often referred to as the New World, as all other macro-regions in the world have several different divisions. The divisions come from geographic, regional, economic, cultural, and other perspectives. The cultural divisions have led to the ''creation'' of a region known as Latin America.

Latin America is the region where the Spanish and Portuguese language and culture have prevailed and have set the basis for modern-day nations. The influence of these two countries can be found in almost all of South America, almost all of Central America, Mexico, and the largest and most populous Caribbean countries, thus making it a very large cultural region. While this is the current situation, it wouldn't come as a surprise if in few decades the US is also included in this region when taken into consideration that the Hispanic population is very close to becoming the largest in the country and on top of it it has the highest birthrates.
