How many US states have a border with the pacific ocean

@Literaturegirl: I think that's the atlantic

@pride49: Understand why you would, but no. Both Mexico and Canada are also US of America.

@Literaturegirl: So canada and mexico and the united states are all the same country?

@Literaturegirl: Are they though, I mean they are both on the north american continent but neither Mexico or Canada were ever amongst the States counted as making up the united States, they both have gone out of their way not to be included in the United states.

@pride49: No, part of the same continent.

@xCoinx: They are the United States. America is the whole continent, not a country

@Literaturegirl: I'm pretty sure the question was for the states within the country of united states. not all states on the north american continent bordering the pacific ocean

@pride49: Possibly, but it's based on a mistaken idea about the idea of the "US" which also annoys both Canadians and Mexicans

@Literaturegirl: Yea but since when did anybody care about what the Canadians and Mexicans think?

@Literaturegirl: Is what you call the collective countries on a continent that important?

@pride49: Of course! It reflects too the arrogance of the "US"

@Literaturegirl: I doubt it's going to change. maybe the united states of mexico or canada They should have been called to begin with. Apparently Americans aren't good with names so we chose it that way

@pride49: Mexico is the US of Mexico

@Literaturegirl: huh Americans were arrogant when we choose America as our countries name lol

@pride49: Of course... And why their neighbours can't stand them

@Literaturegirl: seems kinda petty

@pride49: The arrogance of the US?
