    The number of people in my town that think our language is American, Mexicans speak Mexican, all Asian people are Chinese, and any random combination of cities/countries are part of the United States makes this very plausible.

      You do have a few Saint-Petersburgs, right? And Athens? And Cairos?

      that think our language is American,

      Similar to Russia then.

      Mexicans speak Mexican,

      Similar to Russia then.

      all Asian people are Chinese,

      Still similar to Russia.
