Pair 1 is correctly matched. Anatolia is the peninsula of land that today constitutes the Asian portion of Turkey. Because of its location at the point where the continents of Asia and Europe meet, Anatolia was, from the beginnings of civilization, a crossroads for numerous peoples migrating or conquering from either continent.

Pair 2 is correctly matched. The Amhara Region is located in the northwestern part of Ethiopia. It is the homeland of the Amhara people. Amhara is the site of the largest inland body of water in Ethiopia, Lake Tana. The Amhara region is often mentioned in the news due to historical conflicts among Oromo, Amhara, and Tigrayan groups of Ethiopia.

Pair 3 is not correctly matched. Cabo Delgado is the northernmost province of Mozambique (not Spain). It has been in the news because Mozambique's Al-Shabab extremist group has been carrying out attacks in the province since 2017.

Pair 4 is not correctly matched. Catalonia occupies a triangular area in the northeastern corner of Spain (not Italy). It is bordered by France and Andorra to the north, the Mediterranean Sea to the east, the autonomous community of Valencia to the south, and the autonomous community of Aragon to the west. Recently, mass protests broke out across Spain's Catalonia region after its former separatist leader Carles Puigdemont was arrested.

Therefore, only two pairs (Anatolia – Turkey and Amhara – Ethiopia) are correctly matched.
