United States

The United States of America, also known by the abbreviations USA, US, and just simply America, is a country compromising fifty states in North America. Known as the most powerful nation on Earth, it encompasses territories and military bases around the world.

Humble Beginnings
The USA began in 1776 after the American Revolution. It gradually expanded west, inducting new states and later purchasing Florida and the Louisiana territory from Spain and Louisiana respectively. The first three presidents they inaugurated were George Washington, John Adams, and Thomas Jefferson. Along the way, they fought many countries for land.

It wasn't until the 1800's that the USA became a fully recognized country, and still was fighting with the British [War of 1812]. No one exactly won; the treaty called the war a stalemate. Near the end of the 1800's, the Mexican-American War began and ended, giving most of America's contiguous borders and the Gadsden Purchase. The Spanish-American War gave the USA control of the Philippines and wiped the Spanish control off the island nation of Cuba.

World War 1
It's time for World War 1!

Europe is in chaos. Austria Hungary attacks Serbia, while the Russian Empire attacks Austria Hungary, Germany attacking Russia and passing through Benelux to attack France, and Britain attacking Germany and so on. America decided to assist the Allies and helped them win. Then came the Great Depression, which was a time of extreme poorness in the USA. Meanwhile, Germany was still having problems with the Treaty of Versailles.

World War 2
World War 2 began with Germany invading Poland, and with the USSR invading Poland with Germany. The USA was neutral for quite some time until 1941, when Japan bombarded Pearl Harbor. This got the USA mad, and then the USA entered World War 2. As a symbol of friendship, Germany declared war on the USA. Little did they know that the USA became one of the strongest on Earth due to something they called "War bonds".

1942 was the Axis success. Japan owned most of the Pacific and Germany owned most of Europe. But things changed when the USSR joined the Allies. Together, the USA and USSR kicked Germany and Japan back into their respective places.
