 | Astronauts often remark that from space, there are no borders. It is astonishing how many US citizens refer to the USA as 'America'. Those who travel, wander, or gaze back from the stars remember what history and humility teach: no nation owns a continent, and no name encompasses the whole. This is America: Canada, United States, Mexico, Bahamas, Belize, Guatemala, Honduras, Cuba, Jamaica, Haiti, Dominican Republic, Nicaragua, El Salvador, Costa Rica, Panama, Trinidad and Tobago, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Antigua and Barbuda, Dominica, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Barbados, Grenada, Colombia, Venezuela, Guyana, Suriname, Ecuador, Peru, Brazil, Bolivia, Paraguay, Uruguay, Argentina, and Chile. |
