Best Answer

The oldest country in North America is Canada, due to declaring its independence from France in 1500. Mexico is the youngest country in North America, but is also one of the oldest countries in Central America, due to declaring its independence from Spain on September 16, 1810. Mexico is older than the other countries in Central America on the way to South America, except for Belize. The oldest country in South America is Brazil, due to declaring its independence from Portugal in 1650.
