At the risk of my karma points, I reiterate the call for USONA, The United States of North America.

> In the words of the immortal Bad Bunny:

> God Bless America. Chile, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, Bolivia, Peru, Ecuador, Brazil, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Panama, Costa Rica, Nicaragua, Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Mexico, Cuba, Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Haiti, United States, Canada.

Let's face it, it's a lot less expensive and bloody than annexing them by force, which has begun with Venezuela.

And America is named for an Italian, Amerigo Vespucci.

While the U.S. are one of the largest American countries, they are not as United as they used to be, and they have never been the largest of the world (that'd be Russia) nor America (that'd be Canada: "second-largest country by total area, with the longest coastline of any country." (Wikipedia)).

Head of America's largest country as of 2026 is King Charles III: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Monarchy_of_Canada
