USA is not America

Indeed, U.S.A. is not America!

America is the name of a whole continent. United States of America means that the United States belongs to America and NOT that America belongs to the United States. So, next time you want to refer to The United States of America, you can do it as U.S. or the States or whatever you want but not as only America. Gotcha?

America

How should I use the term America then?

Here we will show you some wrong and correct uses of the term America:

  • This is how we do it in America.
  • This is how we do it in the States.
  • America is my country and I love it.
  • The United States is my country and I love it.
  • America lost the Vietnam war.
  • U.S.A. lost the Vietnam war.
  • Here in America we love Mc Donald's.
  • Here in the U.S. we love Mc Donald's.

AztecainsteadofAmericasays...

The Aztecan continent was named "America" by Americans in the United Kingdom.

Same Americans that created The United States Of America.

If you are Aztecan then you are not American.

Hey … Now do you see! I have written/spelt America in every way that I can, and it comes to a total of 128 ways in counting!

Spelling it like this … America … may as well be proper grammar, yes, but it still remains the same word, no matter what way or how you spell it, and will always be referring to the whole NEW WORLD, period!

Fabián(Argentina)says...

Beach Boys "California girls"

"And I seen all kind of girls,

Yeah, but I couldn't wait

To get back in the STATES.

Back to the cutest girls

In the world."

Davidsays...

And the States are very often called America.

Pedrosays...

They still are States that are in America. (Yes America, "the country", not the continent). That's their name.

Mrs. Anonymoussays...

Its because people have followed a conditioning of the wrong name.

Davidsays...

If it’s wrong, then so is your precious definition.

Fabián(Argentina)says...

So important is the "United States" part of the country's name that is very present in its highest symbol, the flag. The 50 stars represent the number of states that make up the nation currently, and the bars the original thirteen that became independent.

Davidsays...

Thanks, Mr. Obvious. And ‘America’ is still known worldwide as one of the names of the USA.

Mrs. Anonymoussays...

That is due to conditioning! People have been conditioned to use the name of the continent to mean the country, but it is wrong.

Davidsays...

If it’s wrong, then your sacred definition is also wrong.

The United States Of Americasays...

The United States Of America

Destroyer(Canada)says...

Where would The united States be if there was no America?

AmericaisAmericanalreadysays...

Hey disguised frustrated Stupid David, you do a good job by spamming into several names hahaha.

America is a word already created by Americans in The United Kingdom.

You don't like it, I don't care.

Destroyer(Canada)says...

Where would The united States be if there was now America?

Destroyer(Canada)says...

What would The United States do without America?

theywouldstillbeAmericasays...

If the continent changed name from "America" into "Azteca", The United States Of America would still be The United States Of America.

The Aztecan continent has a country named America.

The United States Of Azteca!

Destroyer(Canada)says...

Are you sure about that?

The United States Of Americasays...

Of course.

The United States Of America is a name, not a terminology that belongs to America.

The terminology United Kingdom is in reference to its countries.

United States of America (is a terminology.)

United States Of America (is a name.)

Fabián(Argentina)says...

US Americans

americansays...

A South-American jealous about America.

Republic of "The United States of America"
