Alas, we really took the spotlight of all the other American nations by calling ourselves "America" and "Americans". Of course, it was never really meant to be that way (we were only a United States first, and America happened to be its location), but semantics took the upper hand eventually.

And it's not for lack of trying for a unique name -- but can you honestly call things like "Fredonia" and "Usonia" trying?

Perhaps in another timeline there would be someone slightly more creative who can come up with something oddly passable. But what kind of moniker would they come up with?

(My money's on Liberia -- ain't I original?)
