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?
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.

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!
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."
And the States are very often called America.
They still are States that are in America. (Yes America, "the country", not the continent). That's their name.
Its because people have followed a conditioning of the wrong name.
If it’s wrong, then so is your precious definition.
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.
Thanks, Mr. Obvious. And ‘America’ is still known worldwide as one of the names of the USA.
That is due to conditioning! People have been conditioned to use the name of the continent to mean the country, but it is wrong.
If it’s wrong, then your sacred definition is also wrong.
The United States Of America
Where would The united States be if there was no America?
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.
Where would The united States be if there was now America?
What would The United States do without America?
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!
Are you sure about that?
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.)
US Americans
A South-American jealous about America.
Republic of "The United States of America"
The United States of America is part of America. NOT AMERICA IT SELF.
It doesn't read The United States is America!!!
It reads The United States of America!!!
Meaning it is PART OF not that it IS
One of the meanings of ‘America’ is the United States of America. You know this. Facts are facts.
Yes you are right facts are facts and the truth is the truth no matter how much you try to dress it up or try to change the truth, The truth will always remain the truth.
So If you know the truth will come out so why lie?
Why not just accept the truth. I have!!!!!!!!!
Have A nice Day
America is only a nickname acquired by the common people who couldn't understand that there was more to the land of America than just the British colonies! They might have been peasants and unlearned persons who could not fathom the idea that the continent was larger than just the north east of it where they landed. People who continued on with this stupid notion that they were the only ones in the continent, continue calling the U.S. as America not realizing that the continent first owned that name by hundredths of years before puritans came to the shores of North of America.
Canada is in North-America but not in America.
North America and Central America and South America is America.
North America is part of America
Central America is part of America
South America is part of America
The United States is part of America
And the USA is also called America.
It is part of America. It is in America. And it is America.
America of The United States, not the continent.
America is NOT of the United States. It is actually the opposite …
United States OF America (correctly meaning a country called “United States” that is OF 1 (or 2) continent(s) named America)!
Overall, America is NOT the name of a country and United States is NOT the name of a continent!
