Are these sentences correct?Hello, I believe I'm over thinking and I'm not sure if the following sentences are correct in terms of word usage. 1. Ce lieu est le foyer de la plus ancienne colonie (not sure if I'm using le foyer correctly) 2. Un vaste terrain, se compose d'une population petite (should it be terrain qui se compose?) 3. C'est une terre d'histoire
