To which part of America does Mexico belong to in your opinion?
No, only one.I made this poll as there seem to be some uncertainty in this respect
Latin America[c] is a cultural concept denoting the Americas where Romance languages—languages derived from Latin —are predominant.[5] The term was coined in France in the mid-nineteenth century to refer to regions in the Americas that were ruled by the Spanish, Portuguese and French empires. The term does not have a precise definition, but it is "commonly used to describe South America, Central America, Mexico, and the islands of the Caribbean."[6] In a narrow sense, it refers to Hispanic America, Brazil, French West Indies and Antillean Creole French speaking Caribbean countries.
Central Americahttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_America#cite_note-3 is a subregion of the Americas.[2] Its boundaries are defined as bordering Mexico to the north, Colombia to the south, the Caribbean Sea to the east, and the Pacific Ocean to the west. Central America usually consists of seven countries: Belize, Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama.
ccording to the U.S. Census conducted in 2000, 42.8 million Americans identified themselves as being of German ancestry, representing 15.2% of the total U.S. population. By comparison, the next largest group, Irish Americans, comprised 10.8% of the population, while African Americans and Americans of English background each accounted for just under 9%.
It's not an opinion.
I thought it my duty as a guest to create such a pollThis is like asking someone what their opinion of 2+2= .

Yes, in the same way that Vancouver Island is part of North America, and Madigascar is part of Africa.On a similar note: Is the UK part of Europa? Is Ireland part of Europa?

Plus Sri Lanka is part of the Indian sub-continent and Japan is part of Asia. Rumpel's questions are bewildering.I'm delighted to post on this board where people grasp geography. You'd be amazed at the ignorance out there.
Where out there?You'd be amazed at the ignorance out there.
