Most languages translate the full name, so the long form leads; short forms such as 美國 (Měiguó) or Usono follow in the same cell. Chinese is given in traditional and simplified characters.
02 · Names
Translated, borrowed or shortened: how languages name the United States
Most languages render the full name word for word, so the United States of America becomes Vereinigte Staaten von Amerika in German, États-Unis d’Amérique in French, Соединённые Штаты Америки in Russian and Ամերիկայի Միացյալ Նահանգներ (Amerikayi Miac̕yal Nahangner) in Armenian. The word for state varies: German has Staaten and Spanish Estados, while Russian, Kazakh, Tatar, Bashkir, Uzbek and many other languages written in Cyrillic use forms of штат.
A second group shortens the name to a single word. Esperanto says Usono; Haitian Creole and Lingala have Etazini, which echoes the French États-Unis; Malagasy writes Etazonia and Papiamentu Merka. Chinese 美國 (Měiguó), Korean 미국 (Miguk) and Japanese 米国 (Beikoku) are short forms that stand beside long ones such as アメリカ合衆国 (Amerika Gasshūkoku).
Languages of North America have their own names. Hawaiian says ‘Amelika Hui Pū ‘ia, Lakota Mílaháŋska Tȟamákȟočhe, and the Navajo name Wááshindoon bikéyah ałhidadiidzooígíí begins with Wááshindoon, the Navajo word that also stands for the city of Washington. Cherokee and Inuktitut appear in their own syllabaries, ᎤᏴᏢᎢ-ᎠᎺᎵᎦ ᏙᏱᏗᏢ ᎦᏚᎲ and ᐊᒥᐊᓕᑲ.

City names that changed on the way
Washington is Vaŝingtono in Esperanto, Waszyngton in Polish, Wakinekona in Hawaiian and 華盛頓 (Huáshèngdùn) in Chinese; Vietnamese has Hoa Thịnh Đốn beside the phonetic Oa-sinh-tơn.
New York keeps its English form in French, Luxembourgish and Low German, but becomes Nueva York in Spanish, Nowy Jork in Polish, Novjorko in Esperanto and Нью-Йорк in Russian. San Francisco has a second Chinese name, 舊金山 (Jiùjīnshān), beside 三藩市; Vietnamese writes Cựu Kim Sơn. Los Angeles appears as 羅省 (Luōshěng) in Chinese next to 洛杉磯, and Chicago as Chikago in German and Ĉikago in Esperanto.
The two landmarks are translated almost everywhere. The Statue of Liberty is Freiheitsstatue in German, Статуя Свободы in Russian, Ozodlik haykali in Uzbek, 自由の女神像 (Jiyū no Megami Zō) in Japanese and Istatwa ng Kalayaan in Tagalog. The White House is Casa Blanca in Spanish and Catalan, Weißes Haus in German, Белый дом in Russian and البيت الأبيض (al-Baytu l-Abyaḍ) in Arabic, while Japanese keeps the English sound in ホワイトハウス.

13 · Divisions
States, commonwealths and territories
Forty-six states call themselves State of, and four use Commonwealth of: Kentucky, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and Virginia. Rhode Island had the longest official name of all, State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, until voters shortened it on 3 November 2020.
Outside the states, the territories differ in status. Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico and the US Virgin Islands are organized unincorporated territories, American Samoa an unorganized one, and Palmyra Atoll the only incorporated territory. ISO 3166-2 places Palmyra and eight other small islands, from Baker Island to Wake Island, under the single code US-UM, with a subdivision list of its own (UM-67 to UM-95). Each of the six outlying areas also has a country code in ISO 3166-1 (AS, GU, MP, PR, UM, VI).
Several territories carry an official name in a second language: Puerto Rico is Estado Libre Asociado de Puerto Rico in Spanish, Guam Guåhån in Chamorro, American Samoa Amerika Sāmoa in Samoan. Among the states, Hawaii has a Hawaiian name, Mokuʻāina ʻo Hawaiʻi, Louisiana a French one and New Mexico a Spanish one.
