Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump's 'Gulf of America' Now Appears on Google Maps for US Users
Caption: Trump’s ‘Gulf of America’ Now Appears on Google Maps for US Users. US-based users of Google Maps now see the body of water previously known as the Gulf of Mexico listed as the "Gulf of America.” The name update follows an executive order from President Donald Trump, who directed the renaming as part of his effort to "honor American greatness.” Google clarified that users in the US will see “Gulf of America,” while those in Mexico will continue to see “Gulf of Mexico.” Other regions will see both names. The company stated it follows a long-standing practice of applying government-approved name changes to its mapping service. The same executive order also directed the renaming of Denali, the highest peak in North America, back to its original name, Mount McKinley. The order denounced former President Barack Obama’s 2015 decision to rename Mount McKinley as Denali, calling it an insult to President McKinley’s legacy. The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the US Coast Guard have started updating official documents and charts to reflect the new names. Public notices from the US Coast Guard now reference the "Gulf of America," reinforcing the administration’s renaming initiative.
