There are at least four countries in N. America. Canada, Mexico, US and also Greenland is a separate country. I forget how Iceland is counted if that is N. America or Europe. JLA

I was just talking about the three main players: Canada, Mexico and the United States. I omitted the Caribbean nations and Central America on purpose, even though they're probably technically part of North America. There are lots of political/geographical possibilities for 200 or 300 years down the road. For instance, there might be a "left coast" country made up of Alaska, Yukon, B.C., Washington, Oregon and California. Arizona, New Mexico and Texas could become part of a new Hispanic nation that also would encompass northern Mexico. Florida could become part of a Caribbean nation that would include Cuba, Haiti-Dominican Republic, Bahamas, etc. Lots of possibilities. Perhaps someday historians will look back upon the '00 election as the beginning of the separatist movement in the United States.
