'Gulf of America' arrives on Google Maps after President Trump renames area
Briefly

The Gulf of Mexico has been renamed to the Gulf of America for US users of Google Maps, as per an executive order signed by Donald Trump. This aligns with his administration's agenda to honor perceived American greatness and reverses previous name changes, including that of Mount McKinley back to Denali, despite its earlier designation under Barack Obama's presidency. Google confirmed its adaptation of the new name based on official government changes, and the FAA and Coast Guard have begun updating their records accordingly.
"People using Maps in the US will see 'Gulf of America,' and people in Mexico will see 'Gulf of Mexico.' Everyone else will see both names."
"The order criticized Obama's decision to rename McKinley as 'an affront to President McKinley's life, his achievements, and his sacrifice.'"
