AH Challenge: USA really IS America.

That is, stretching from the arctic coast to the southern tipe of South America.
Encompassing all of central america and caraibian islands, at least 80% of the North and South American continents.

Discuss: Any suggestions? How would that happen?
 
Just give timeline-control to some of our Yanks. I'm pretty sure there's at least one Ameriwank where the States owns the New World...
 
What about a more united Europe but with equal (if not bigger) colonial and exploration aspirations? That way, the descendants of different countries in the USA would inherit closer unity so there is a small chance that at the time of independence (I'm presuming it's also supposed to be the 1700s) there are more people who want to be part of the same nation rather than evolving into the many different nations. So at the time of formation, the USA consists of the Spanish colonies in Central and South America as well as it's British, Portuguese, Dutch and French colonies in North America and the Carribean. No slavery would greatly help matters, if only ethically.

It does sound ASB though but it could be possible if Europe has had a better existence since the Dark Ages. I'm also unsure how long this USA would last due to a gradual cultural rift occuring between the North continent and the South continent.
 
Well, how do you get it to be called the USA?
The VSA, the VPA, the RPF, the KRA (okay, now I'm just inventing names at random, but...), etc could all be the names of the *USA...
Í somehow doubt more united Europe's colonies in America would unite under an English name...
And, of course, the POD, one could argue, would, at a minimum, have to be at the point when America being called America was more-or-less accepted already...
 
Get the Spanish to have their king become "King of Castille, of Aragon, of Portugal, of Britain, of Netherlands, of Burgundy, and maybe of France. Have such state survive until 20th century so during that time space they manage to conquer at least 80 % of the Americas. Though I think this "America" would only get its independence at the late 19th century at the earliest...
