Why is America called United States ??

 The name United States of America is commonly shortened to USA.


Before independence, the land now known as United States consisted of 13 British colonies along eastern cows of North America.



These colonies differ in culture, economy and governance, yet they shared growing dissatisfaction with British rule.



When they decided to break away from British crown, they faced a crucial question  ---  "  How could seperate colonies unite, while still maintaining their individual identities ??  "



After declaring independence in 1776, the former colonies  merge into a single centralized territory.



Instead they formed a union of individual states, each with its own government and law, while agreeing to be governed collectively on national matters such as defence and trade.


So,  America is called USA because the name accurately describes the nation  :  A Union of individual states located in America   !!!

Bheja Fry question

 This Bheja Fry question don't require mathematical knowledge  !!!


Question 


If          9999  =  4

             8888  =   8

             6688   =  6


Then     4466  =  ??




Answer 


Please don't try to put mathematical formulae over here !!!


Just look at the number 9.


It is having one circle in the upper part  !!!


In the first row, we have 9999.  So,    4 circles.


Now look at the number 8.


It is having two circles on both upper and lower parts   !!!!


In the second row,  we have 8888.. So,   8  circles.


Same way,


In the third row, we have  6688.


Total number of circles in the number 6688 is     6.


On the same logic, 


In the fourth row we have   4466.


Number  4  don't have circles, it has only empty  space !!!


But number 6 has one circle in it.


Number    4466 has   2     6s.


Total number of circles       only     2     !!!!



Hence  9999        4

              8888         8

                6688            6

                4466            2
