Geography cartographs are going to earn lots of money after all of the renaming and redrawing borders in recent times (US, middle east, Russia-Ukraine).

dont everlook the sense of entitlement americans are showing by expecting others to comply with the name change. you said it, we can call it whatever we want. why are americans so upset we arent calling it what you tell us too?

Give me a 30 million page document and a word processor, I can have every instance of "Gulf of Mexico" renamed to "Gulf of America" in under a minute.

This idea that names can't change, borders can't change, nothing can change because documents and maps are expensive and time consuming to produce is a very dark ages theory.



I don't care if Europe complies. Or even Mexico. As I said, the US government officially renamed it the Gulf of America. Therefore US companies like Google are required to comply, at least when it comes to what they serve Americans.

Now, if, say, Spain were to say, "NO! We named it 'Gulf of Mexico' Like 400+ years ago! We're staying with that name! GOOGLE! If you wish to continue doing business in Spain, then anyone who accesses Google Maps from Spain will see 'Gulf of Mexico'!" I'd say that'd be perfectly reasonable. And in fact, Google would probably capitulate, and it's unlikely the US Government could do anything about it.

There are certainly options for maintaining the "Gulf of Mexico" name in other nations. And as I said, feel free.

I don't know who you think is upset that non-Americans still wish to call it "Gulf of Mexico". What I've being seeing is people crying that in the US it's now called "Gulf of America".

>Canadians opinion
>instantly disregard

You guys can't even beat us at hockey, you're own sport.

just google stanley cups won based on nationality. Canada has you beat by a long shot. We are over a thousand and usa is in second with a mere 220ish... Canada owns hockey, i dont even give a fvck if we lose on thursday, it wont change that we are miles ahead
in hockey wins. the idea that you brought up that argument with us teams stacked with Canadian players is laughable.

Canada's last Stanley Cup win was in 1993. It's been over 30 years, friend.

Canada hasn't owned hockey for a very long time. It's so bad that Canada's best players come play for US Teams, so they have a chance at getting an actual win, not to mention a paycheck that is worthwhile.

lol, exactly. us teams winning with Canadian players. thanks for proving my point.

in 93 the Montreal Canadians won their 23rd cup. no other team is even close.

You think that's a win, but it's directly counter to your "Canada owning hocky" statement.

Twitter is owned by Elon Musk. Because he bought it. Hockey has been "owned" by US Teams for over 30 years. Because they bought it.

If you think it's a "win" that Canada teams turned to shit because those teams were unwilling to pay their best players what they're worth, that's a strange flex.

point being if the us teams had to use americans, they would almost never win...

You guys got lost at home, in your own sport, & got beat up.

3-1

fucking wrecked
