B. They were settled largely by Turkic peoples.
C. They have long been home to nomads.
D. They are both mainly Christian.

Answer 1

D. They are both mainly Christian.

Step-by-step explanation:

Central Asia is part of Asia going east from China and Mongolia. It includes Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and sometimes Georgia and Armenia. All of these countries have been part of the Soviet Union and started being independent since its dissolution in 1991. Armenian and Georgian people are not mostly Turkic, unlike other Central Asian people.

However, Georgia and Armenia have a long Christian tradition and are mostly Christian countries. Other Central Asian countries are predominantly Muslim countries and most of the people follow Islam.
