A nation of North America established in 1786 through the adoption of a federal constitution; at this site, the demonym "Usonian" is used to refer to people or things of the United States. Normally the country is referred to as the "USA," with "US" being an adjectival form. There are fifty US states, a federal district, and fourteen territories.
Owing to its extreme size, population, and global influence, this site includes a page for the USA as a geographical category (i.e., collection of useful links) and an individual nation.
