Srednja Amerika je podregija v srednjih zemljepisnih ?irinah med Severno in Ju?no Ameriko . Obi?ajno vklju?uje Mehiko, sedem dr?av Srednje Amerike ter 13 oto?kih dr?av in 18 karibskih ozemelj. Skupaj s Severno Ameriko tvorijo celino Severna Amerika.

Kolumbija in Venezuela Ju?ne Amerike sta v?asih vklju?eni v to podregijo. Karibi so ob?asno izklju?eni iz te podregije, medtem ko so Bermudi in Gvajane redko vklju?eni. ^[1]^[2]^[3]

Geografija [ uredi | uredi kodo ]

Fiziografsko gledano Srednja Amerika ozna?uje ozemeljski prehod med Severno Ameriko in Ju?no Ameriko, obe povezuje, a lo?uje. ^[4] Srednjeameri?ka celina na zahodu obsega zo?eni, o?inski trakt ameri?ke kopenske mase med ju?nim Skalnim gorovjem v ju?nih Zdru?enih dr?avah in severno konico Andov v Kolumbiji, ^[5] ki lo?uje Tihi ocean na zahodu in Atlantski ocean (tj. Mehi?ki zaliv in Karibsko morje ) na vzhodu, medtem ko Veliki in Mali Antili tvorijo oto?ni lok na vzhodu. Regija se je razvila subaerial ju?no od Severne Amerike kot kompleksen sistem vulkanskega loka v zgodnji kredi , ki je s?asoma oblikoval kopenski most v pliocenski dobi, ko je njen ju?ni konec (v Panami) tr?il v Ju?no Ameriko zaradi tektonskega delovanja . ^[6]

Uporaba izraza Srednja Amerika kot sinonima [ uredi | uredi kodo ]

Ob?asno se izraz Srednja Amerika uporablja kot sinonim za Srednjo Ameriko (primerjaj s Srednjo Afriko in Srednjo Afriko). Izraz se redko uporablja kot sinonim za izraz Mezoamerika , ki se na splo?no nana?a na starodavno kulturno regijo v Srednji Ameriki, ki se razteza pribli?no od osrednje Mehike do severne Kostarike. ^[7] Poleg tega se nekateri prebivalci regije (npr. Kostari?ani in Nikaragovci) lahko imenujejo Mezoameri?ani ali Srednjeameri?ani, ne pa tudi Srednje Ameri?ani, kar se nana?a na dolo?eno volilno enoto v Zdru?enih dr?avah. ^[8]
