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 Borderlandsa 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.
