Spin: What would we rename America if we could?

[Swagnificent]

You like being named after an Italian
May as well be called Mario land

Italians gave us pizza and pasta. There's a lot worse nationalities to be named after.

America is a great name. Why would anyone wanna rename it?

It’s named after this guy …

Amerigo Vespucci - Wikipedia

Someone who stayed at home and proved Columbus wrong … really ????

 

[TEH]

Just call it Columbia instead. The United States of Columbia

This makes more sense … but did he ever land on American/ USA soil?

We'd probably sell the naming rights to a corporation every other year. Would be on brand to do so.

I typically don't believe stuff like this. Why would the royals of Europe allow a "new" continent to be named after some random guy? Wouldn't the King of Spain or England have named it after himself?

I believe America was the name of this land before any European stepped on it. They just used this Italian dude as an excuse to keep us blinded about the truth of there being a black presence in the Americas before Columbus.

Now that India might rename itself and a lot of countries have their own internal names.

If we were to rename America (… because why should we keep the name of an obscure Italian explorer …) what would we be called?

I can tell you that and more with our Silver plan, only $25/month.
Alternatively, you can make a payment for the full year for the $210. That's 30% in savings Mr. @TEH



Do you a debit or credit card on hand to complete the transaction?
