Answer: There are many cultural homelands in North America. One is French-Canadian Quebec, a region defined by French-language speakers, as opposed to Canada's largely English speaking population. Another well-defined area is the Hispanic Borderlands—a more diffused geographic region that exhibits a rich legacy of Spanish place names, Catholic churches, and traditional Hispanic settlements. A third cultural region is that of African- American settlement the American South; this is a region that remains home to many black folk traditions, including music and food. A fourth region is Acadiana, a zone of Cajun culture in southwestern Louisiana. This homeland is considerably more compact in size, and is distinctive for its music and food.
