Text 10: The United States of America

The United States of America, also called the United States, the USA, America, or the States, is a federal republic in central North America, stretching from the Atlantic Ocean in the east to the Pacific Ocean in the west. It has land borders with Canada in the north and Mexico in the south. The United States shares a marine border with Russia in the west. The country has fifty states. Washington is the capital of the USA. It is situated in the District of Columbia. The largest cities are New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Boston, and some others. Each state has a local autonomy according to the system of fed­eralism.

American colonies of Great Britain separated from their mother country in 1776 and were recognized as the new nation of the United States of America in 1783. During the 19th and 20th centuries, 37 new states were added to the original 13 states. The two most traumatic ex­periences in the nation’s history were the Civil War (1861 - 1865) and the Great Depression of the 1930s.

There are five ethnic groups in the US: whites sometimes called Eu­ropean-Americans; African Americans, also called blacks; Hispanics, also called Latinos; Asian-Americans, frequently specified as Korean-Americans, Chinese-Americans, etc.; and Native Americans, also called American Indians.

The majority of people currently living in the United States descend from Europe immigrants who have arrived since the establishment of the first colonies. Major components of the European segment of the United States population have descended from immigrants from Ger­many (23 percent), Ireland (16 percent), England (13 percent), Scot­land, the Netherlands and Italy (6 percent), with many immigrants also coming from Scandinavia or Slavic countries. Other significant immigrant populations came from Eastern and Southern Europe and French Canada. Few immigrants came directly from France.

American popular culture has a large influence on the Western world. New York is famous for international opera and instrumental music as well as the world-famed Broadway plays and musicals. Cinema of the USA (primarily situated in Hollywood, California) and television of the United States can be seen almost anywhere.

The United States is also a center of higher education with more than 4000 colleges, universities and other institutions of higher education.
