Jan. 27 (UPI) --Google will show Gulf of Mexico as "Gulf of America" and Alaska's Denali as "Mount McKinley" in the United States once the U.S. government has officially updated to the U.S. Geographic Names Information System, the U.S. tech giant said Monday.
Changing maps to say "Gulf of America" doesn't change history, and likely won't change what most people call the massive basin
Google says it will take its cue from the U.S. government if it has to change the names of the Gulf of Mexico and Denali on its maps. The company said Monday that it will only make changes when the government updates its official listings for the body of water and the mountain.
One of US president Donald Trump’s first actions upon returning to power was ordering the Gulf of Mexico to be renamed. But mapmakers are still largely waiting for the green light.
The state of Alaska requested the name change in 1975, but the Board on Geographic Names didn’t take action. Members of the Ohio congressional delegation – President William McKinley was from Ohio – objected over many years to requests to rename the mountain, and the board did not act on those requests.
The U.S. government is already working to remove all mentions of the Gulf of Mexico name in the Geographic Names Information System (GNIS).
