I mean the other 2 countries, Canada and Mexico, how similar are both of them to United States?? Both countries have a similar economy and democracy etc, and I think those two countries share things like supermarkets, stores, etc. I suppose the cultural differences are not a lot, that is very nice.

    The countries are all huge. They are more alike one another at their borders than they are similar to themselves throughout.

      so for example, Ontario is similar to Oklahoma and Coahuila is similar to Texas, that would be a new point of view!!

        No I mean people in Vancouver and people in Nova Scotia are more culturally distinct than Nova Scotians and folks from Maine.

        Same applies to Mexicali and Calexico. Very similar. But Mexicali isn’t a whole lot like Savanah Georgia.

        Space separates culture more effectively than invisible lines.

            I’m really confused by what metric Oklahoma gives off a Canadian vibe other than the name sounding like it according to you. It most likely sounds like it to you because it is a Native American word.
