The correct answer is C. The Dominican Republic and Haiti are both part of the Caribbean cultural region of North America.

Explanation:

The Caribbean consists of the Caribbean Sea, the ocean around the Bahamas and the many islands that lie in these waters. The majority of the islands in the Caribbean are of the Antilles. Only the Bahamas (including the Turks and Caicos Islands) do not belong to the Antilles.

The area is located southeast of the Gulf of Mexico and north of South America. It owes its name to the Caribbean, an Indian tribe that lived there at the time of the arrival of the Europeans. In the colonial era, the Caribbean was referred to as the West Indies or the West, a name that refers to Christopher Columbus' misconception that he had reached India. The area is part of North America; only the islands belonging to Venezuela and Colombia and the three Guyanas are counted as South America.  

Many countries in the Caribbean are united in the Caricom. About 70% of the population of the islands speak Spanish, the other major languages are French, English and Dutch.

Both the Dominican Republic and Haiti are located in Hispaniola, an island that lies in the Caribbean Sea.
