Answer: Blue Ridge
Explanation:
On average, annual rainfall increases with elevation, with the greatest amounts (more than sixty inches per year) falling on the southern Appalachian Mountains in north Georgia—specifically the Blue Ridge region—and forming a temperate rainforest.
Geography- Both countries are large and contain some of the most fertile soils in the world. In fact, the land is so productive that North America is the world's leading food exporter. Much of this agricultural land is found in the plains regions and in river valleys. The United States and Canada also have huge forests.
Economics- The economies of the United States and Canada are highly integrated, a process that has been accelerated by the bilateral U.S.-Canada free trade agreement (FTA) of 1988 and the NAFTA of 1994. Both are affluent industrialized economies, with similar standards of living and industrial structure.14 Sep 2011
Culture- We consider why international business research comparing values, attitudes, and behaviors of managers from the United States and Canada shows conflicting results about cultural differences and similarities between these two nations. We argue that one reason behind these inconsistent findings is the presence of intranational subcultural regions in these nations. The second reason is that the variable(s) under scrutiny influence the generalizability of research findings. Employing Lenartowicz and Roth’s (1999) framework for culture assessment, theories of cultural evolution and maintenance, and data from the World Values Survey, we test the distinctiveness of subcultural regions in the United States and Canada, at both the individual level and the regional level of analysis.
Government- Canada and the United States are both democracies. They are also both federal states.
Iowa is the central state of the corn belt - it is therefore the best answer!
The corn belt is in the north-East of the United States and not in the south (Texas and Alabama are in the South, so far away from the corn belt). Oregon is in the West - also away from the corn belt.
