Is there a 4th political entity in North America?

Question

I'm taking a Geography class, and my professor is offering extra credit for anyone who can tell him which language is most widely spoken in the "4th political entity in North America".

The definition of North America includes the U.S., Mexico, and Canada, but excludes Greenland, Bermuda, the Carribean, Central America, and the Bahamas.

So basically, I think he's saying there's some sort of country embedded in the U.S., Canada, and/or Mexico. He said the language most spoken there is either: English, French, Spanish, Dutch, or Russian. So what's the "political entity" and what language is spoken there?

Answer 1

Well based on your definition he could be talking about a few different political bodies in North America. Excluding micronations of dubious sovereignty, you have the United Nations, which is headquartered on Manhattan Island, but is technically not considered within the United States (official languages: English, Arabic, Mandarin, French, Russian, and Spanish), or possibly Saint Pierre and Miquelon, a French possession just off the coast of Newfoundland.

Answer 2

its the UN in New York

Answer 3

It's French.

There is a tiny Island off the South coast of Newfoundland called "St. Pierre/Michelon".  It's a French colony, and French is spoken there.

Answer 4

Well, every country counts as a political entity, right?  Haiti primarily speaks French.  

Answer 5

There are large French sections of N.America, Like in Quebec and in New Orleans. I'm not exactly sure what he means by 4th political entity though.
