In response to "Map Men had a video on why “America is called America”. We know all the basics, but... do Americans call it “America”? Not “The United States” or “The Yew-Ess”? -- nm*" by Mop

Here’s the video.

Honestly, for me it’s always been “The United States” or “The U.S.” It always sounds weird to me when Brits call it “America”. I think it’s very much a British thing. In Spanish, it’s always “Los estados unidos”. In French it’s “Les etats unis”.
