Answer:
The correct answer is A. New England is an example of a region.
Step-by-step explanation:
New England is a region of the United States of America located in the northeastern part of the country. It consists of 6 states: Maine, Vermont, New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Connecticut and Rhode Island. The region's largest city, as well as its largest economic and cultural center, is Boston.
The region was first settled when English pilgrims, Puritans, arrived in North America following persecution in Europe in the early 17th century. In the 18th century, New England was one of the first British colonies in America to show a desire for independence from the British Crown, although it later opposed the war fought in 1812 by the United States and Great Britain. In the 19th century, the region played an important role in a movement that sought to end slavery in the US, became the source of the first examples of American literature and philosophy, and showed the first signs of the impact of the Industrial Revolution in North America.
