The only two wars that the United States could never claim a victory for would be the Korean War, since it ended in a cease-fire and stalemate; and the Vietnam War, because we were gradually pushed back and finally withdrew from the country at Saigon, the largest city in non-Communist southern Vietnam at that time (1975).

Get the United Statesmug. A shortened form of The United States of America. This country is located below Canada in North America and is governed by two dominant political parties. Unfortunately for Americans, one of these parties -- known as the Republican party -- is composed of paranoid schizophrenic religious nutjobs who seem committed to living in the past instead of planning for the future. Because both parties are roughly equally balanced in power, little progress is made in America's political system, as the Republican party attempts to destroy the country while everyone else attempts to save it. Overall, the United States of America is a horrible place to live, especially if you have a vagina.
Person 1: "Damn! The republicans are at it again!"
Person 2: "What is it now?"
Person 1: "They're trying to slash funding for the Clean Water Act, Clean Air Act, Planned Parenthood program, and all of our other public service programs!"
Person 2: "Fuck, man! They're trying to destroy the United States! It's time to move to Canada."
Person 1: "Fuck yeah!"
Person 2: "What is it now?"

Get the United Statesmug. The greatest nation in the entire planet. Just because we have not passed laws and amendments promoting and legalizing every single thing, it doesn't mean our government is a fascist dictatorship. So we don't allow gay marriage and dangerous drugs like ecstacy or cocaine. Big deal.
This massive country consisting of 50 states and over 280 million people is divided into several regions, and every single race and ethnic group resides within the United States of America. Every kind of religion and language is found in different parts of this fine country.
The regions include New England and the Mid-Atlantic States in the Northeast; The Deep South, Upper South (Tennessee/southernmost third of Kentucky), and the Lower Mississippi Valley in The South; The Ohio River Valley, Great Lakes States, the Upper Mississippi Valley, and the Northern Plains in The Midwest; The Rio Grande Valley, the Southern Plains, the Rocky Mountains, The Sonoran and Mojave Deserts, Lake Mead, and Los Angeles and San Diego metropolitan areas in southern California, all part of the Southwest; The Rocky Mountains sprawl over roughly six consecutive states, and extends well up into Canada. Finally, the Cascade Mountain Range, Mt. Rainier, Mt. St. Helen's, and the Snake and Wilamette River Valleys make up the Pacific Northwest. The states of Alaska and Hawaii are located very far off the mainland of America. Alaska is adjacent to the western border of Canada and near the Arctic Ocean, while Hawaii is composed of a series of islands surrounded by the waters of the Pacific Ocean.

Get the United Statesmug. A country trying to copy the United Kingdom. And also a place where politics is the most talked about thing.
Dave wanted to visit the United States but he didn't want to face discrimination of political opinions, so he went to Canada instead.

Get the United Statesmug. The US is the shittiest country. It’s so fucking racist and full of misogynistic white men. A lot of people around the world come here but it shouldn’t feel special because they only come here for opportunities, although it’s not a big deal I have a country but apparently people think it’s the best even though it sucks ass! Americans are so full of themselves and that racism shit OH NO!!! They don’t even season their food like how can you be so proud eating bland ass shit? There’s no way to sugarcoat it it’s a dumb fucking country and the colonizers are just feeling themselves a lil too much. They culture appropriate other cultures and they’re always so on edge to just change themselves and just act like they’re from this country or they’re black so they can say the N-word. They’re so welcome to do Asian fishing, black fishing, literally disrespect other countries cultures and they don’t even have one. so fucking rude smh
