We're also not the only union of states in the Americas either. Mexico and Brazil both have states, too.
But are they united?
At least as united as the US states... which is not a high bar most days of the week.
They are officially the United Mexican States.
They're more united
Could I refer to the US, Mexico and Brazil collectively as the not-united-united-states? (As in, they're each united states, but they're all not united)
On second thought, I hereby petition all three countries to unite together to form the United United States of the Americas
Edit: and just for funsies, because that name is too long, they insist on calling themselves the United Nations. Their citizens call themselves Americans. ๐
