Since a gambler and show-master, who thinks he can run the third largest country in the world (by area), became president of the United States, the media is on testosterone. USA in the news 24/7, globally.

OK, there is Hollywood in California (thanks to Hotel California and the motion picture industry), people heard about sunny Florida with its funny buildings, inhabited by senior citizens, there is the largest city in the US, New York with the Statue of Liberty (SOL), there is Washington where the president and his 'vice' president run their show, but for example -- a few people outside the US know there is an entire state named Washington, and the same goes for New York, the state.

The United States of America is a federal republic comprising fifty states and the Federal District of Columbia (Washington, D.C., the capital city of the United States).
The country covers the central part of North America. It originated in the American War of Independence, the successful rebellion of the British colonies (aka The original thirteen states) on the east coast in 1775–83.
In the 19th century the territory of the US was extended across the continent through the westward spread of pioneers, settlers, fur hunters, and gold diggers (at the expense of the American Indian peoples).
