[quote=Anonymous]Mexico is actually the United Mexican States. Should they be pissed that the "United States" is short hand for the USA? Estados Unidos Mexicanos and United States of America would be similarly translated in other languages, for example, in French the USA is Les Etats Unis, which is just "the states united." It's shorthand, yes, but now people in France can't use Les Etats Unis as shorthand for Mexico. The world knows there is the country America and the continent(s) of America(s). It's fine.[/quote]
