Study English in the USA
The United States of America is a federal republic situated primarily in North America. It is bordered on the north by Canada and to the south by Mexico. It comprises 50 states and one federal district, and has several territories with differing degrees of affiliation. It is also referred to, with varying formality, as the United States, America[1], the U.S., the U.S.A., the U.S. of A., the States, or (poetically) Columbia.
Since the mid-20th century, following World War II, the United States has emerged as the dominant global influence in economic, political, military, scientific, technological, and cultural affairs. Because of its influence, the U.S. is generally considered to be a superpower.
The country celebrates its founding date as July 4, 1776, when the Second Continental Congress—representing thirteen British colonies—adopted the Declaration of Independence that rejected British authority in favor of self-determination. The structure of the government was profoundly changed in 1789, when the states replaced the Articles of Confederation with the United States Constitution.
