This is actually really cool because I am connecting with my teen son over One Piece (live action), and I can throw this fact out at him. Thank you, it will be a wholesome mother-son moment.
I love the show, it's so great. My son and I grew apart a bit when I was in grad school, but we're making up lost ground. Parents should always make a big effort to be involved with their kids, and I wish I did more 2 years ago, but I'm doing my best now.

Wait til they got told Mexico is in America, they're gonna lose their shit.
Like the USA owns the continent, pffh.
The abbreviation for the US, due to what I think are dumb syntax rules in Spanish, is E.E.U.U.
For reals. I know, right?
But wait there's more! Mexicos official name is the United States of Mexico, or Estados Unidos de México in Spanglish.
And also in Spanish, I think

I think the official English version is actually United Mexican States.

EEUU makes sense when there's also an EU.

In Spanish, plurality in abbreviations is denoted by doubling up the letters; so (United States) Estados Unidos -> EEUU

Parents taking an interest in their kid's interests and One Piece are two things that make this world a better place!

Poor Yanks. The UK has primo heroin still. Must be cos we're closer to the Middle East and the Dutch are excellent drug traffickers.
