AMERICA

America is known as the United States of america, it is known as the most powerful country in the world and occupies a great territory of the continent north America,

A song that represents America is the one of Frank Sinatra named New York New York, where he represents its country in a great city named New York, and wants to show us how to live there is "perfect" because all the things it has. 

An object that represents America is the statue of liberty that represents the independence from the other countries and now days it is a world symbol that everyone recognize, representing power, freedom and wealth.

A movie that represents America is "Pearl Harbor" directed by Michael Bay and it shows how powerful United States can be when the fight against him, it shows the meaning of this country that is the power.

"Somos mas americanos"

This song talks about the territory in north America, the lyrics of this song is referred to the Mexican people who complain about the territory of united states because they think that USA have stolen their territory, in their song they refer to north America as an invaders of their own country and emphasize that most of the territory USA have were from them. Also it is important to say that they criticize one of the criticism that US have of them now days, the Americans think that Mexicans are people who like their country very much and some of them cross the border because they want to get to that country, although in the song authors make a message telling the north Americans that they have not cross the border, the border get to them. This means that they were invaded; this is shown in the next fragment:

“Ya me gritaron mil veces que me regrese  a mi tierra que aqui no quepo yo, quiero recordarle al gringo yo no cruce la frontera

la frontera me cruzo.”

 For this video I think that what Mexicans say about the invasion of USA to the other countries is true because what history shows us, is that part of the territory they owned  were located in South America and other parts of the continent that help to contribute to their development, one example of this is the separation of panama from Colombia caused by them.
