“Vinland” is what the Vikings who discovered the land named it. Not a bad name.
Were I to name it today I’d pick some foreign language version of “The Land of Pulling Up the Ladder” or “The Land of Crabs in a Bucket”.
how about turkish, Yukarıya Çekilen Merdivenlerin Ülkesi (Land Of Pulling Up The Ladder)
X
I'm partial to "Sideræl", myself.
Just got an image in my head of a map where it's just Xs dotted across the country titled X sandwiched between Canada and Mexico and the 'gulf of X (gulf of Mexico)'
"Just take interstate X southbound and get of at exit X towards X. If you see X you've give too far."
yes please
The incorporated states of Northern America ltd.
The vikings were there first (after the native Americans), so I'd go with Greater Norway.
Worser Norway.
Would be Lesser in this context and refers to size
I guess, but with tongue in cheek I thought worser worked betterer.
Based on norway is bad already, it must be worse.
Jk hello from a Swede 😁
Forvestlandet
Fascistan
Ignorancia
Corpoland
Gun-ited Steaks
RetroPolice, like metropolis but it's a reactionary police state
Ozempia
Han Dynasty would be funny, not least because it doesn’t solve the problem
There’s also the Prince joke “Land formally known as USA”
It's "formerly." Whether or not he wore a suit didn't change his legal name back from the symbol
~~The United States of America~~
Kleptostan brought to you by Carl's Jr
The DraftKingsTM United States of Trump
The Bada Bing Republic
Did Amerigo Vespucci migrate to North America or did he just pass through?
Oops.
Disneyland.
North Mexico
The Golden Whored
No, he did not. But I thought it was funny to say he was an immigrant, and it doubled as bait for people to call out that he wasn't. Hook, line, sinker?

Welcome to Costco I love you.
Xico
Break up the union and pick the name of the most powerful government that existed within the bounds of every state before the land was occupied by any old-world government.
Needs to be named first.
Stolidus
- It sounds strong and powerful
- It's Latin, and therefore properly awesome.
- It's definition is: foolish, absurd, dumb, forceless, powerless

It’s an Algonquin cryptid / monster with an insatiable hunger for human flesh and a love of murder. Generally greedy and evil. Also known to smell bad.
Honors our native heritage and says something about our beloved country’s strength of character.

Mountain Dew presents: Freedom Country - Brought to you by United Healthcare.
Way too credible
Given the religious fervor throughout its history, how about naming it after an ancient biblical region?
Transjordan?
Wait. Shit, that won't work, even Jordan's gone woke. Maybe something else in the region?
OH! How about Gilead!?
