    I think it’s a mistake to equate the United States with “America”. I prefer calling Americans “Yankees” or “Usonians”.

      I agree. Similarly, I&#x27;m miffed that www.dmv.ca.gov (and such) goes to State of California websites and not Canada.

        *.gov is for USA, use *.ca for Canada instead of California.
