Which pair of countries are both part of the caribbean cultural region of north america? a. nicaragua and jamaica b. florida and puerto rico c. dominican republic and haiti d. ontario and cuba

The correct answer is C. The Dominican Republic and Haiti are both part of the Caribbean cultural region of North America.

Explanation:

The Caribbean consists of the Caribbean Sea, the ocean around the Bahamas and the many islands that lie in these waters. The majority of the islands in the Caribbean are of the Antilles. Only the Bahamas (including the Turks and Caicos Islands) do not belong to the Antilles.

The area is located southeast of the Gulf of Mexico and north of South America. It owes its name to the Caribbean, an Indian tribe that lived there at the time of the arrival of the Europeans. In the colonial era, the Caribbean was referred to as the West Indies or the West, a name that refers to Christopher Columbus' misconception that he had reached India. The area is part of North America; only the islands belonging to Venezuela and Colombia and the three Guyanas are counted as South America.  

Many countries in the Caribbean are united in the Caricom. About 70% of the population of the islands speak Spanish, the other major languages are French, English and Dutch.

Both the Dominican Republic and Haiti are located in Hispaniola, an island that lies in the Caribbean Sea.

1) checks and balances- this idea is implemented in the constitution to ensure that no one branch of the federal government gains too much power. for example, the legislative branch(congress) can approve a bill that will then be sent to the executive branch (president). if the president does not like the bill or thinks that it violates the rights of citizens, he/she can veto the bill. vetoing the bill stops the bill from becoming a law. this check on power ensures that congress makes laws that do not violate the rights of citizens.

2) anti-federalists do not want to ratify the constitution unless it includes a bill of rights. the anti-federalists are worried that the constitution gives too much power to the federal government. having a strong central government caused problems when the us was still part of great britain. this is why the anti-federalists are fearful of this type of system.

3) federalists want a new constitution passed because it will fix america's weak political structure. before the us constitution is implemented, the constitution being used is known as the articles of confederation. this constitution has an extremely weak central government, allowing for disunity among the states.

can't do the whole thing, hope this

confederacy: supported slavery, believed states should be able to nullify federal laws, supported low tariffs

union: everything else
