I apologize for finding it easier to contrast "Latin America and North America" rather than "Latin America and North America minus the one part of North America that also happens to be Latin American." I thought my meaning was fairly clear. Europe and North America are very big places too. Both have regions with differing cultures to various extents, as well.
