North America : U.S.

Comprised of 50 states and several outlying territories, the world’s third largest country spans an entire continent. The U.S. shares land borders with Canada and Mexico, and touches the Pacific, Atlantic, and Arctic oceans as well as the Caribbean Sea and the Gulf of Mexico. Since forming the first constitutional, democratic federal republic in 1776, the United States of America has grown to become the richest and most powerful nation in the world. The landscapes and climate are as diverse as the people in this “melting pot” culture, known for innovation and individualism. Its sprawling, glittering, global cities and awe-inspiring natural landscapes draw visitors from across the planet. From the glamour of New York to the 2,000-year-old Redwood trees in California’s magnificent forests, for many the U.S. epitomizes the pursuit of liberty and happiness.
