The United States of America ( U.S.A. ) (also referred to as the United States , U.S. , or colloquially as America , the States ), is a federal republic in North America with a strong democratic tradition. The US shares land borders with Canada in the north and Mexico in the south and shares a marine border with Russia in the west. Established in 1776 as a collection of break-away English colonies, the United States has since eclipsed its mother nation and most other nations in terms of relative economic , political and military power and - arguably - cultural importance, to the point that it is being accused of economic, political, military and cultural imperialism .
