I checked out this book for a bit of information on some Family History work on the Maritimes of Canada. North America consists of the U.S., Canada, Mexico, many islands of the Caribbean, and several countries of Central America. The Panama Canal goes through Central America connecting the Atlantic Ocean with the Pacific.
500,000,0000 people live in North America. The musk oxen of the far north have the longest body hair of any mammal on earth. Caribbean islands are the home to many coral reefs in the ocean. Blue morpho butterflies are found in Central America. They are considered the most beautiful butterfly in the world. Los Angeles and Mexico City are two of the most populous cities in the world and are in a desert area. The Niagra Falls have a huge amount of water. The Caribbean islands have a lot of palm trees.
