USA (United States of America)
The United States of America, abbreviated USA (eng. USA), or the United States (eng. United States, U.S., colloquially - America) is a state in North America. Area - 9.5 million km² (4th place in the world). Population - just over 333 million people (2021, estimate; 3rd in the world). The United States has a federal form of device, administratively consists of 50 states and the Federal District of Columbia; they also control a number of island territories (Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam and others).
The capital is the city of Washington (District of Columbia), and the largest in terms of population is the city of New York. The United States borders Canada to the north, Mexico to the south, and also has a maritime border with Russia to the west. It is washed by the Pacific Ocean from the west, the Atlantic Ocean from the east and the Arctic Ocean from the north.
The United States of America was formed in 1776 by the union of thirteen British colonies that declared their independence. The War of Independence continued until 1783 and ended in victory for the colonists. In 1787, the US Constitution was adopted, and in 1791, the Bill of Rights, which significantly limited the powers of the government in relation to citizens. In 1861, conflicts between the slave-owning southern states and the industrial northern states led to the start of a four-year Civil War. The consequence of the victory of the northern states was the widespread prohibition of slavery, as well as the restoration of the country after the split that arose when the southern states united into the Confederation and declared their independence.
Until the First World War, US foreign policy activity was limited to interests in the territories of North, Central and South America - in accordance with the Monroe Doctrine formulated back in 1823. After the First World War, the United States Congress did not give consent to the country's entry into international organizations (for example, the League of Nations and the Chamber of International Justice under it), which limited the role of the United States in world politics. However, the country's participation in the anti-Hitler coalition significantly increased the influence of the United States on the world stage, and from the second half of the 20th century the country became the core of the so-called. "First World". In 1945, the United States became the first nuclear power and the first and only country to use nuclear weapons in military operations (the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki), and since 1946 they were in a state of global confrontation with the USSR, which lasted until the early 1990s, when The Soviet Union ceased to exist.
The United States has a military that has the most powerful nuclear capability on the planet in terms of the total number of deployed warheads, but second only to Russia in terms of the total number of nuclear warheads, including the largest naval forces in the world; have a permanent seat on the UN Security Council with veto power; are a founding member of the North Atlantic Alliance (NATO), one of the founders of the United Nations, the World Bank, the International Monetary Fund, the Organization of American States (OAS) and other international organizations.
The United States is a highly developed country, being the world's largest economy by nominal GDP and the second largest by GDP (PPP). Although the country's population is only 4.3% of the world's, Americans own about 40% of the world's total wealth. The United States leads the world in a number of socioeconomic indicators, including median wages, HDI, GDP per capita, and labor productivity. While the US economy is post-industrial, characterized by the predominance of the service sector and the knowledge economy, the country's manufacturing sector remains the second largest in the world.
The country's economy accounts for about a quarter of world GDP and produces a third of global military spending, which makes the United States the main economic and military power on the planet. In addition, the United States has the largest political and cultural influence in the world, as well as being a leader in scientific research and technological innovation, and is currently considered the only superpower on the planet.
