USA: The Country without a name...

<< < (2/3) > >>

Primo:
i think describes the area where there is states in america because u have North America and South America

I think this is the case with many countries actually. The Netherlands for example is officially called 'Kingdom of The Netherlands', while everybody (literally translated) calls it Netherland.

Trauma-san:
There's the famous "Iceland" and "Greenland", Iceland was named Iceland because somebody wanted to keep it a secret that it was so nice there, and wanted all the land to himself (can't remember which king/explorer).

Don Jacob:
