The United States of Polo?
Sure, why not?
Either way, it was an Italian. Marco Polo, Christopher Columbus or Amerigo Vespucci, for which the two continents are named. The only guy missing is Julius Caesar. I’m sure research will eventually show that Caesar got lost on his way to Sicily during the Punic Wars and wound up in the North End of Boston.

I’m kind of partial to Vespucciland, myself.
