    This is not good obviously, but it’s also very US-centric to think that name Gulf of America indicates it belongs to the US. In an alternate timeline it would totally make sense to have a gulf between two Americas called the Gulf of America or even the American Sea. But the US has effectively hijacked the name America

      We could then call it Gulf of the Americas, by simply adding something. (Vandalizing Maps is easy that way)
