Answer to Question 1

Islam is pervasive throughout the region; Judaism remains dominant in Israel and Christianity is important in Lebanon. Most of the region is also dominated by Arabic, an Afro-Asiatic language. However, in Turkey, Iran, and parts of northern Iraq (all places where Islam is prevalent), other non-Arabic languages are dominant. This mis-match between Arabic and Islamic worlds is related to the diffusion of Islam into non-Arabic regions and the influence of the former Ottoman Empire.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: B
