From 1968 Brazil is not United States anymore, we are a Federative Republic.
Isn't a federation a union of states?
I'm talking about the name, we were "United states of Brazil" from our republic until 1968, after that the name changed to "Federation republic of Brazil". I'm dont know a lot about how powerful states were back then, so what changed, but today states in Brazil have a little fraction of the independence that US states have.
Argentina's national anthem we say Provincias Unidas del Sur
Finally I see the map on which they study geography!
there's no such thing as a pacific or atlantic ocean, only the californian ocean and the floridian ocean
Any dispute in the Fauklins about to get ZESTY
I'm pretty sure we called dibs on it.
I mean, The Monroe Doctrine exists.
Hate hate hate that there’s no one cute unambiguous unabbreviated name for the United States of America:
No other country has "America" in the name, so "America" works. What other country could it possibly be?
United means together; States means not together
Hence "E pluribus unum."

So the only ones not a united states is only as big as a single state.
My wisdom:
Tell that to Austria - Österreich. That means "Eastern realm", since there are no countries more to the East of anything than them. Or hell, Iceland. And Niger is named after the river Niger, which might come from ger-n-ger meaning "river of rivers", so that's another wonderfully unambiguous name.
I'm sure there are other great examples.
Deutschland (Germany) means "land of the people" :D
It's funny because our neighbor is also literally called United States, Estados Unidos Mexicanos.
Yup that's why I made this post :D
And then USA is still a thousand times better then US
