US on every continent: Non-wank

Asia
have the US maintain Bear Island [NW of the Bering Strait] as a US territory

South America
Have the US take Dutch Guinea after WW1 in payment of the Dutch war debt.
 
A US occupation on the Falklands is easy:
Either the US occupies them in 1831 after destroying the Argentinian colony in Puerto Soledad, or they add them to the colonies for destroyers trade in WWII with the UK.
Now, turning the Falklands into a state... that's a different thing.
 
South America: The U.S. decides its presence in the Falklands, and this leads to a war with Argentina, gaining the U.S. some land there as well as in the Falklands.

Africa: The Americans, having a bigger navy after deciding to fight for the Falklands, secure trading interests on Madagascar. It later becomes a state.

Asia: One word: Philippines.

Oceania: American interests in Fiji never diminish, and the area ends up under U.S. control permanently.

Europe: Iceland.

Antarctica: Wilkes Land
 
Philippines, Sicily, Liberia, something else in Oceania, and the Falkland Islands in the early 19th century are my best suggestions.

The problem with having states on other continents, is that its the United States of America;)

Even Hawaii- you could make a reasonable case for it being part of North America.

You can have US controlled areas in Asia (the Phillipines), Australasia (Samoa), South America ( Falklands), Africa (Liberia) and Europe (Iceland).

Samoa, the Falklands and Iceland have a chance as states, but barring a wank even they are doubtful.

the ROC arranges to be annexed by the United States to fend off invasion.

This fascinates me. Would the ROC ever consider such a thing? I mean, Taiwanese people are basically chinese, not americans, but they do love their capitalism..
