Topic: Why do people in the US call their country "America"?

Anonymous A started this discussion 12 years ago #37,675

"America" is two continents with dozens of countries. Isn't it rather arrogant to call just your country "America"? If France changed her name to "Europe", how would you feel?

The US is hardly good either. The United States of what? Mexico is actually the United States of Mexico too. Which states are you talking about?

He's just trying to convince himself not to miss his homeland. If he ever returns, he'll be unable to get a job or buy property because of his tax debts.

Nonsense, angry anon.

Good point. Countries should be specific, and not arrogant. USA is USA. DFM is DFM.

The USA formed 34 years before the United Mexican States, so we have priority over the illegal clone. Thanks

Well, the Koreas are. One is the DPRK, and one is the ROK.

In my neck of the woods in USA and add Arizona and Texas to that Soon our part of USA will again be absorbed by Mexico states/hood/

Actually that has always been the fear front and center in Israel. Arabs procreate fare faster then Israels want to. So if they end up with equal rights and are allowed to infiltrate Israel then one day they could be in charge and have it the way they want it to be,

A lot of local political stuff hinges on making the Latino's happy so things do not get out of control. I like it that way. If Mexico gets rid of the drug problem then its ok for them to take San Diego county over and make it Mexico again
