In the USA and most of the English world there is seven continents America not being one of them, instead America is known as the country. In parts of the non English world there is 6 (or less) continents America referring one of them instead of the country. Neither is wrong because continents are arbitrary so people can call the USA America all they wish.

      The problem now is who wants the gift shop. Because if New Jersey claims the shop, then New York must receive funding through intellectual property and ownership of the statue. If New York claims the shop, well the taxes were on New Jersey land. So either way both parties are on the losing side unless the land was technically federal. Then neither can fight for the gift shop.

    I didn't even know that the statue of liberty had ownership. I always just thought it was owned by the state as a whole since you know, the french sorta gave it to them. It never occurred to me exactly what state owned it. Thanks for the video.
