What is the territory of the United States?

There are many versions of American territory. China generally believes that the territory of the United States is 9.37 million square kilometers. This is inland waters of the United States. Because the inland waters of the United States cover an area of about 200,000 square kilometers, and the Mississippi River, the largest river in the United States, is constantly reclaiming land, almost forming the mainstream view of 9.37 million square kilometers. This version is the same as the evaluation standard in China, so most textbooks in China adopt this statement.

The United States is called "from sea to sea", which is the result of hundreds of years of expansion. Except for the east and west sides (Atlantic and Pacific coasts) and the southeast side (Gulf Coast), the long border between Canada and the north is basically straight (the east is naturally divided by the Great Lakes), and nearly half of the border between the southwest and Mexico runs in several relatively regular straight lines.

As for the state boundaries in the United States, they are basically "straight" from east to west and from south to north. Colorado, Wyoming, New Mexico, Kansas and other States are completely monotonous "long squares". In most parts of the vast midwest, even the boundaries between towns are straight. This phenomenon is mainly related to the short and unique founding history, continuous expansion and rapid social and economic development of the United States.

The United States of America, for short, is a federal constitutional state composed of Washington, D.C., 50 states, Guam and many other overseas territories. Its main part is located in central North America. The original version of the CIA World Survey ranged from 1989 to 1996, with a total area of 9.373 million square kilometers and a population of 333 million. English is widely used.

The United States is a country established through immigration. 1620 In September, the British ship may flower, carrying 100 pilgrims, began to cross the Atlantic. After a long voyage, they arrived in Plymouth, North America in June+February, 5438 for colonial activities. From about that time until 1775, Britain had 13 colonies to the east of Appalachian mountains in North America. Later, with the development of capitalist economy and social integration in this area, the 13 colony gradually United and carried out a series of struggles to get rid of British colonial rule. 1776 On July 4th, the Second Continental Congress was held in Philadelphia, under the command of George Washington, and the Declaration of Independence was issued, announcing the formal establishment of the United States of America. 1783 At the end of the War of Independence, Britain recognized the independence of 13 colonies. 1775- 1783 After the North American War of Independence, 1787 the American Constitution was passed, and a brand-new country, the United States of America, appeared.
