Google to rename ‘Gulf of Mexico’ to ‘Gulf of America’


Full story

Google is getting behind President Donald Trump’s plan to change the names of some of America’s most iconic landmarks. The search engine giant announced Monday it will change the names of the Gulf of Mexico and Denali on its maps for American users as soon as the federal government makes the switch. 

Under an executive order signed by Trump on his first day in office, the Gulf of Mexico would become the Gulf of America. Alaska’s Denali, the highest mountain in North America, would become Mount McKinley. 

The president directed the interior secretary to make the changes within 30 days. Trump does not yet have an official interior secretary, but the Senate is considering his nominee, former North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum.
