[x], USA moves
Fragment of a discussion from User talk:Rua
Thanks. Why "USA" rather than "United States" or "United States of America"? Are any other states abbreviated? (E.g. "DRC" for "Democratic Republic of the Congo" or "UK" for "United Kingdom")

The "USA" part was my idea. I believe I first proposed it here: Wiktionary:Beer parlour/2017/June#Proposal: Clean up, rename and replace "en:" → "English" in all categories.
Writing "United States of America" in the categories would be a mouthful. I mean, I'm OK with some kinds of long category titles but that one seems avoidable, "USA" is preferable to me. We never discussed the "DRC", as far as I know. Feel free to propose it somewhere if that's your preference.
