Renaming Gulf of Mexico and Denali

Renaming Gulf of Mexico and Denali:

US President Donald Trump signed an executive order to rename the Gulf of Mexico as the Gulf of America and revert Denali to Mount McKinley, to honor American greatness.Governance on Naming: International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) (US and Mexico are members), ensures uniformity but allows domestic alternative names, with no formal renaming protocol. Mexico and Cuba aren’t bound to the new name, and international agreements still use the Gulf of Mexico.
