The United States of America, often abbreviated to "US", is a country on the eastern coast of North America, bordering Aasamisag, Canada, Louisiana, and Florida. Formed after a revolution by the local landed gentry against British colonial rule, the US is currently governed as a federal assembly-independent republic. A mostly agrarian nation, the US has long pursued a non-interventionist foreign policy, and is considered to be a small power.
