The African Plate is a major tectonic plate straddling the equator as well as the prime meridian. It includes much of the continent of Africa, as well as oceanic crust which lies between the continent and various surrounding ocean ridges. Between 60 million years ago and 10 million years ago, the Somali Plate began rifting from the African Plate along the East African Rift.[2] Since the continent of Africa consists of crust from both the African and the Somali plates, some literature refers to the African Plate as the Nubian Plate to distinguish it from the continent as a whole.
As a result, craters would be more widespread on the Martian surface. This is because there is less atmosphere from less outgassing, it is likely that erosion would be less important as well resulting into craters being widespread on Martian surface.
If Mars were smaller, it would have undergone less volcanic and tectonic activity because its interior would have cooled more.
Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Michigan, Minnesota, Missouri, Nebraska, North Dakota, Ohio, South Dakota, and Wisconsin are all midwestern states
I’m not fully sure but I think it’s
Cuba lies south of the Straits of Florida.
