The Americas: A Comprehensive Guide
The Americas, often called America in a broader context, encompass the lands of the Western Hemisphere.

The Americas contain a complex patchwork of countries and territories reflecting centuries of history, including the rich legacy of indigenous cultures, particularly Mesoamerica, and the impacts of European colonization and the African diaspora.
