United States of America, as the name indicates, means that they are states, that are united, in America, that is, the continent, as is unambiguously known in many other languages. "America" is just an U.S.A. abbreviation that ended hijacking the name of the continent.
Nonsensical things like "there is no such thing as "American English"" are being left and discussed, while the simple fact I just mentioned, which obliterates certain delusions, is being removed. This is what happens when keyboard warriors don't have a counter argument, that's why I will keep adding it.
The following statement only applies in Europe and Africa. French-Canadians never use Amérique to refer to the United States. I feel the statement needs to be rectified.
In French, Amérique is also used to refer to the United States, making the term ambiguous.

Change the "Economy" section to include the information that the GDP of the Americas in 2023 is $35.7 trillion. https://www.imf.org/external/datamapper/NGDPD@WEO/CHN — Preceding unsigned comment added by 177.223.160.125 ( talk) 21:33, 17 October 2023 (UTC)
There is also an article New World which seems to be about the same territory as this one. Does WP need both of them? BookeWorme ( talk) 20:48, 10 November 2023 (UTC)
The claim that old world emigration "largely replaced the indigenous population" seen in the introduction is true in some countries in the Americas, such as the United States, but not in countries like Mexico and Peru, where the majority of the population is either of chiefly indigenous or of Mestizo (part European and part Indigenous) descent. 81.96.124.171 ( talk) 17:37, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
