The United States of America, commonly known as the United States, US, or USA, is a federation of 50 states and the District of Columbia. With over 332 million citizens, it is the third most populous country in the world, following China and India. Additionally, it ranks as the third largest country by area, after Russia and Canada. The US shares borders with Canada and Mexico. Several islands in the Caribbean and the Pacific Ocean, including Puerto Rico and Guam, are also considered part of the United States. In addition to getting yourself ready for any potential risks while travelling, it's also important to apply for your ESTA.
