A bit confused about "Home Area" meaning

[jztemple]

A couple of questions:

1. Is it somehow shown which area is the home area of a nation? I'm playing right now as the CSA and the basing values for The Caribbean and North American East Coast are almost the same, but it wasn't till I was in a war that I found that the enemy could blockade my bases in The Caribbean but not the East Coast, so I'm guessing that The Caribbean is my home area.

2. Can a nation have more than one Home Area?

There are two concepts here:

Home area: Can have more than one. The CSA for example has the Caribbean and the North American East Coast. Used for determining garrison requirements and some events.

Build area: Is where your new ships are built, and is used for determining blockaded status.
