How is the region known as the "new york tri-state region" different from the region known as "the muslim world? "

The New York tri-state region is made up of the New York Metropolitan Area, which includes cities from 3 states: New York, New Jersey and Connecticut (although some data also includes Pennsylvania).

This area is an absolutely heterogeneous area, that is, demographically diverse in terms of ethnicity, religion and even language. Thus, it is not uncommon to find in New York Italian-Americans who continue to use Italian within their family, African-Americans, Irish Catholics, Chinese, Protestant Anglo-Americans, Latinos who speak Spanish and even people who belong to two or more of these groups. In short, it is a megacity where almost any religion or language can be found within.

On the other hand, this situation is completely contrary in the Muslim World. It is a much larger area, covering all of North Africa and the Middle East, from Morocco to Pakistan, but in which its demographic component is much more homogeneous: populations of ethnic origin mostly Arab, Berber or Persian, with Arabic languages in their vast majority, that profess the same religion: Islamism (although within this there are two currents, the Sunnies and the Shiites).
