The main crop you see for miles around here is corn and almost everybody's first language is English.
A.
place

B.
region

Answer 1

region, is something that is large, generally. Like you say country region...
When you go to the club though, you would call it a place, not a region, right?

'miles around' indicates that we are talking about a larger place.

You choose ?

This question is good in history, but better for English, http://openstudy.com/study#/groups/English

Answer 3

Okay so I had to look up the definitions of geography to answer this question.

Place
Place (geography), an area with definite or indefinite boundaries or a portion of space which has a name in an area

Region
In geography, regions are areas broadly divided by physical characteristics (physical geography), human-impact characteristics (human geography), and the interaction of humanity and the environment (environmental geography). Geographic regions and sub regions are mostly described by their imprecisely defined, and sometimes transitory boundaries, except in human geography, where jurisdiction areas such as national borders are clearly defined in law.

Answer 4

Based on the terms of the geographic dictionary, I would say
B. Region

Answer 5

The examples of a place were like @SolomonZelman explained more narrowed towards a particular location, where a region is conceptually more broadly defined.
