The origins of the name America can be traced back to the beginning. At present, the United States is made up of 50 states. Although Washington DC and Puerto Rico are included in the United States, they are not considered states.
The Americas are named after Amerigo Vespucci. He was the first to determine the actual location of the American continent. Although Columbus was called the discoverer of America, he never set foot on North American soil. He has been searching for gold and silver on several islands in the Caribbean, now known as the Bahamas and Hispaniola.
In the British colonial era, the name of the United States was 'United Colonies of America'. After defeating the British and gaining independence in 18, the name was changed to United States of America. The former British colony is now playing the role of mentor to the British. The only superpower, the super power.
Writing or pronouncing the name America alone usually means the United States, although there are 34 other countries in North and South America, large and small. American adjectives ‘American’, such as American University, American TV series. The word American is distorted in this country and eventually takes the form of 'American' and finally 'US'.
The American name was born in Bengal during the British rule when the country was flooded with cheap clothes imported from America. US cloth is 100 percent cotton gray cloth. Rongtong is used for clothing of poor people, lining of mosquito nets, bags, baskets etc. Clothing stores still offer cheap US-made clothes.
